Hi there,<br><br>Tahoe is a great tool and our self-hosting distribution project (<a href="http://www.beedbox.org/en">www.beedbox.org/en</a>) is trying to get a deeper view on this helpful tool.<br><br>However, I do have several questions to better understand the project.<br>
<br>Sorry if it has already been deeply discussed before.<br><br>1) I understand how important is the Rootcap and if I loose it, I will not be able to retrieve back my data. But in such a case, my data into the network will become useless. Does Tahoe has a kind of deadline if I don't use it for XX months, the files are deleted?<br>
Because I'm afraid that the network could be full of unclaimed/lost storage.<br><br>2) How safe is the encryption? Any way to be sure our data is safe?<br><br>3) In term of bandwidth, can we know how the degree of saturation of the network? Or something similar? This part is a bit unclear for me, how is the Tahoe performance to replicate the data.<br>
Samething for my own node (We have the storage usage, I'd like to see as well the bandwidth usage of my server for Tahoe)<br>And, as far as I understood, the client, when uploading a file, need to replicated 10 times the file (Right?). If we use an helper, this helper will directly replicate the data. (Very good for asymetric connection as only once upload is necessary) but between helpers or within the network, any p2p data exchange ? I mean automatically. A kind of automatic replication based on user preferences.<br>
<br>4) And last point, any update for implementing quota? (Like I share 10GB, I can have access to XGB, etc...)<br><br>Thanks for your lights !<br><br>dudumomo<br>
