[Go-essp-tech] BioTorrents

[stephen.pascoe at stfc.ac.uk]

Hi Balaji,

Thanks for the link.  I did have a think about using BitTorrent over the
Easter holidays.  Potentially it could be another service on the
datanode.  I could imagine running seeding BitTorrent clients on all
datanodes and having trackers on gateways.

Whether we could do this without throwing security/notification/etc. out
the window is unknown.  I'll have a good read of the article.

S.

It's a great pity we aren't using torrent technology in our field...
