Week of November 9-15

Additional tests have been performed on LAN and WAN. Best achieved network transfer speeds are around 71 Mbps between Bloomington and Indianapolis and 19 Mbps between Bloomington and San Diego with four source and one client. To increase the performance gain the followings parameters have been modified.

1-) Different piece size (from 256 KB-4 MB)
2-) Different block size (from 16KB-512KB)

No performance gain has been observed. In my opinion, there are already overhead and synchronization issues in GridTorrent and adding new features to increase transfer speed has adverse effect on its data transfer performace.

Fake a slower link (to Cardiff) by introducing a delay of say 200ms into each transmission on LAN. What happens then!
