nonam Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Hello, is it possible to get sync timings of less than 1 second (+ latency of the online connection) with bittorrent sync? I want to sync small files on 2 VPSs as fast as possible. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RomanZ Posted June 28, 2014 Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 @nonam It is hardly possible. When Sync establishes TCP connection, the latency caused by network is minimal, but there is some latency when file is actually saved. All apps save file in their own way: some open file, write data, close it. Some do that twice or even more times. Some save data to a temp file and then rename it. To avoid redundant operations, BTSync gives some delay after the app makes last operation on the file, when the delay expires and no more operations on the file - it starts the Sync. This delay cannot be controlled in current version of Sync and is around 10 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
