Skynet fetches files in under 100ms, you can definitely get a decentralized system going as fast as the centralized web if you build it right.
The main challenge for me with this comment is that you can't expect distributed/decentralized networks to win if you set an expectation that "things will just be slower than the normal web". Nobody is going to migrate to that.
- amelius 5y ago> Skynet I don't know Skynet. I first checked Google, got a Wikipedia link describing a movie, then checked the Wikipedia disambiguation page, but got nothing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skynet https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skynet Also, why would a project duplicate the efforts of IPFS rather than contribute to it?
- Taek 5y agohttps://siasky.net/ https://siasky.net/ and https://docs.siasky.net/ https://docs.siasky.net/ IPFS has chosen an architecture which fundamentally keeps it non-performant, Skynet is built from the ground up in a different way, and gets 10-100x improvements on performance for content-addressed links, and 100-1000x improvements on performance for dynamic lookups (IPNS)
