Re: RocketStream

Are there ways to speed up file transfers ?
Sure , lots of ways . I have no doubt that a system like theirs that controls both ends of the connection could be faster .

I do have issues with statements like this though !

" How does it compare? Imagine downloading a 10 GB file over a 100 Mb/s connection from Asia to the United States. Under typical network conditions, a download over HTTP would require over 18 hours to receive the file. RocketStream?: under 20 minutes."

Wonder just how they are routing that ?
100Mb under normal conditions should only take 20 min. for 10 GB.

Yeah, seriously -- what, do they claim to have a route of virtually unused 100+ megabit links (or underused gigabit links) across multiple continents or at least one very large ocean?

I affirm my previous assessment of fishy smell.
