| May 13, 2013 at 1:11 | comment | added | Joe | @SideOfBacon : But that's not my question. I'm attempting to figure out what the technical limitations of BitTorrent are to determine if it's even a candidate for me to consider testing. PS.. I know what the XY Problem is ... it's been around since before StackOverflow. | |

A better question might be "based on data with this characteristics (size, frequency of updating, etc.) what is the best way to archive and distribute it?" Otherwise, you may be falling into the XY Problem: meta.stackexchange.com/questions/66377/what-is-the-xy-problem | |

| May 12, 2013 at 17:13 | comment | added | Joe | @SideOfBacon : that's why I want to know what the limitations are ... is it practical to list each file independently? How about every past calibration of each file? Or tiles of the file so that someone can then selectively retrieve parts? ... what are the practical min/max file sizes for an individual torrent, and how many torrents can you seed from single server (or how do you calculate the max based on CPU/RAM or other resources?) | |
