Spacemarine Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 I want to set up a network of computers/NAS on different networks to distribute a large collection of files and have them available even if some nodes fail. Some nodes (e.g. laptops) will get moved between different networks, so I guess Bittorrent Sync would be my best choice here. I am a little worried about the performance, as I'd like to get a transferspeed of around 100 Mbyte/sec. Normal NAS and computers can handle this easily, but can Bittorrent Sync? I read that a rasperry Pi can only handle around 2 Mbyte/sec. And I can not find any benchmarks where BTsync was tested on different hardware. What is you experience with this? Which architecture would be best for that? x86/arm ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bburtin Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 I'm syncing from my Windows laptop to a Raspberry Pi running Raspbmc. The BitTorrent Sync web UI says I'm getting between 1 and 1.1 Mbyte/sec downstream. I don't need blazing speed, so it's good enough for me. But yeah, surprising that it's not faster.
