If I was aspera or filesociety, I'd be rather worried.

I'm planning on using this to sync terrorbytes between london and LA. Why should I pay the ridiculous cost of a thinly wrapped rsync over UDP when I can have it for free? (the latency between the two means that the maximum throughput on tcp based protocols get about 2-3 megs a second tops)

I will be testing the throughput of torrentsync. Currently it appears to be painfully single threaded (it looks to be python)




You must have a frightening amount of data!


Is this just a delay-bandwidth-product problem? Are you not using tcp window scaling for some reason?
