What sort of sync speed would be resonable to expect from syncthing over the wan?
I have 2 servers Syncing VM backups and I’m only getting 15Mbit/s on the largest Image. (~80GB) Yesterday when transfering a couple of the smaller files I was getting speeds upwards of 200Mbit/s
Both machines are Xeon E3’s with 32GB ram, One is an E3-1220 at online.net the other is an E3-1225v2 at OVH.
The machine at OVH is capped at 250Mbit/s outbound but I don’t believe the inbound is capped, The one at Online.net is on a gig port but it’s via a reseller so I don’t know if it has a minimum guranteed bandwidth like some of the online.net dedi’s do.
The sending machine (E3-1220 in online.net) has some VM’s running but they’re mostly idling so CPU usage from the VM’s is roughtly 10 - 15% the rest is available to syncthing.
The reciving machine in OVH has a virtual router running that’s idling (It’s only routing for the other VM’s which there are none at the moment, not for the host itself).
