50x Faster Than BitTorrent: I Want
- Retric 19y agoBitTorrent let's you play movies that you have yet to finish. So it's not 50x Faster than BitTorrent.
- byrneseyeview 19y agoDoes bittorrent necessarily download the movie in that order? Usually, I can't play more than five minutes of a movie before the download is complete (and usually less than a minute until it's 95% done).
- bct 19y agoIt's up to the client what order it downloads chunks in (assuming all chunks are available). I'm sure there are clients that try to download chunks in order.
- wyday 19y agoIsn't this more about bandwidth in China, and not the technology of the p2p networks? I don't know, the title makes a statement but it isn't backed up (and I can't read Chinese).
- iamwil 19y agoWhat title? You mean the four characters at the beginning on the whiteboard? It says "Beware of glass" Presumably, the guy was standing in front of a small eatery.
- wyday 19y agoThe title of the blog post makes a claim that this new technology is "50x Faster Than BitTorrent". Also, the site referenced (http://www.blin.cn http://www.blin.cn) is in Chinese.
- andreyf 19y ago50x faster? Unlikely - when I'm downloading BitTorrent files (with say >100 peers), my connection's bandwidth limit (Cable modem, 1MBps down) is usually the bottleneck. So no matter how much faster the blin.ch protocol is, I'm not getting 50x faster downloads.
