dregge8 Posted August 5, 2014 Report Share Posted August 5, 2014 Scenario, I have SeedBox and would like to sync the contents to 10 different btsync nodes. The SeedBox is the Master, is set for Read-Only and of course, all of content is coming from there. When btsync is transmitting data, would it be sending sequential incremental pieces to all 10 nodes simultaneously, or would it be sending different pieces to each node and they would all work together to fill in the gaps, thus sharing the load. ie. I have a 600mb file being sent to 6 nodes, would it send different chunks to each node, or would it start from scratch on each one? x00000x000000x000000x000000x000000x000000x orx00000x00000x00000x00000x00000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latter - different chunks of data will be sent to the 10 nodes, and each of these nodes will in turn share those chunks with other nodes.

Currently I sync from my seedbox using lftp which maxes my bandwidth, however with bittorrent sync and 1 node I only seem to transfer at about 10 mbit because it is only using one connection. However if I have several nodes, and they are each getting different chunks at 10 mbit and thus sharing the load, all of my connections should max out.

Helen Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 If there is a peer with a certain uploading speed, other peers will have the same downloading speed and vice versa. It also means the following: the more peers with X mbits/s up~/downloading speed, the higher the total speed will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
