> IPFS is particularly bad latency-wise I'm not sure how much of that is name lookup All of that is due to their mistake of trying to use a sessionful protocol for their DHT. Bittorrent got this right -- sessionless DHT -- which is why IPFS remains a rounding error compared to bittorrent, and will remain so until they adopt a sessionless DHT.
