Has anyone here used BTSYNC for a multi-user Massive file sync program? I have used it for some rime and overall I would have to say it does a perfect job. Bu I am only using it on 4 or 5 systems to keep all my files available where ever and on whatever system I happen to be using.
I tested it on the whole 50,000 file directory and while not the Fastest, it was not bad and Free to boot
I was thinking through the logic on the program and wondered what would happen if two different people made different modifications to the same file and then BTsync got ahold of them both.
What would be best would be to have both modifications show up as a (1) and a (2) modified version I guess 2nd best would be first one in to be the change made BUT a notice would be sent to the other person for that person to add their modification as well if needed..
BT SYNC is an interesting solution for people who need to all share the same files but I am not sure how well it works with multiple users/editors.
Another thing I wondered was if there is a file that exists in 10 put of 15 users' SYNC folder and if all users are sharing the same Secret will it propagate to the other users any faster that if there were only 5 users who had it and had to upload to maybe 10 who did not? Does it get to the others faster if more people are send parts?
With so may Small files it seemed t me the best way to make sure everyone had instant access to everything was to set aside a small 20 GB partition ad just let BY sync keep all their local partitions up to date.
But that is too ay so there has to be something wrong with that idea Though I have been Impressed so far with BT Sync for my own needs.
