- davewiner 16y agoIt takes a lot longer than a few minutes for it to speed up. Sometimes I come back the next morning and it's still running in the 2K-5K per second range. I thought it was peer-to-peer, I don't think they're even keeping copies of the data. BTW, I'm running the 0.8 version, it's supposedly faster, but so far -- doesn't seem to be.
- codeglomeration 16y agoI don't think they're using peer to peer. From what I know they use local syncing on the client and the content is uploaded via SSL, and stored encrypted on EC2 storage.
- davewiner 16y agoThanks -- a friend and I were discussing that the other day. I wasn't sure, he thought for sure it was P2P.
- xal 16y agoIt is peer 2 peer within the lan ( see options - enable lan syncing ). This is great for companies that manage shares though dropbox. This way you don't have 40 people download the same bit.
