Why would one prefer this over s3ql (https://bitbucket.org/nikratio/s3ql/ https://bitbucket.org/nikratio/s3ql/)?

  Zero has a cache where it keeps the most recently accessed files. For example, your latest 100GB of raw video recordings. Does s3ql do that? I skimmed over their documentation and could not see it but maybe I didn't look long enough?

    "S3QL splits file contents into smaller blocks and caches blocks locally." -- http://www.rath.org/s3ql-docs/about.html#features http://www.rath.org/s3ql-docs/about.html#features It allows you to configure an arbitrary cache size, I've been using it with 60GB local cache.

      But are writes and reads really 100% local or do they require synchronous networking?
