Are there easy to use multiplartform BT libs around that would let you use this just for high bandwidth, nearby peers? Eg filter peers by latency as a first pas

- colechristensen 11y agoWhy would you care to exclude peers slow or far? What benefit would you expect? The torrent library to use is libtorrent. https://github.com/rakshasa/libtorrent https://github.com/rakshasa/libtorrent
- zurn 11y agoS3 will normally provide ample bandwidth, but in some situations there's a local shared downlink that is the bottleneck. For example in asset heavy multiuser VR or game apps used by many people in same location. By only including the nearby peers I get all the benefit but minimize the risk of people accusing me of clogging / mooching off their uplink.
