This should work fine. You’ll probably get best performance having a cluster of several machines both in and outside of Vietnam. They might share the pieces with each other faster than over the international border, and hence cooperate.
Not every part, there are some heuristics which don’t apply (such as small files) and not immediately (the updates of stuff available is sent once every 10s or so)
Thanks for the clarification. Yes, that’s not an issue at all.
My concern was that IF I send an (let’say) video interview of 4GB file size, it’d continue leeching/seeding from multiple sources at the same time. This looks like the right tool now.
With files there is an option about the order in which their are sent/pulled (?), and the default (random) makes sure that clients get different content first. Here it is just about a single big file though - so how is block order handled?
I need to upload 10GB / day to Vietnam (to my Vlog editor)
I got a VPS in Vietnam and SCP’d 2.65 GB. It took 11h 40min. --> 3.8 MB/min or 4.4h for 1GB
Now with Syncthing:
used my local computer as source for a 1GB file
used another VPS as a third node in the US
connected all 3 nodes together, dropped a 1GB file.
It looks like I more than doubled the upload speed by just switching from SCP to Syncthing and using another node. It took pretty much 51min for 1GB file.
Question: do I read the screenshot correctly? Did the file complete on the Vietnamese node at 21:20?
Is the upload speed on the right box (in the greyed area) the MEAN upload speed?
