Re: reverse checksumming [technical]

Hi there. A colleague and I here at OSA have been looking at exactly this for some time now. We have implemented two prototypes over HTTP and have found that the number of blocks matched is almost identical whichever way around you do it. Reverse mode makes more sense for file distribution for a

Fwd: Progress! IESG "Last Calls" for Delta, Vcdiff, Instance Digests

2001-01-17 Thread Tim Adam
Folks here may be interested in the Internet Draft "Delta encoding in HTTP". Briefly, the idea is for a client or downstream proxy to tell a server or upstream proxy that it already has a particular version (specified by ETag) of the document or a template file and is prepared to receive a delta-

reverse checksumming [technical]

2001-01-17 Thread Goswin Brederlow
Hi, I looked into how to reduce the cpu/disk load on the server and how to rsync compressed files more efficiently. I found that I have to reverse the checksum algorithm to used precached checksum files on the server. Since I don't need any listing of file it reduces the protocol requirements d

Re: backup modifid files

2001-01-17 Thread Yan Seiner
I think this is sort of what I'm looking for as well - I want to keep backups of deleted files for 3 working days. As rsync does not change the time stamp of backups, I have no clear way of knowing which backups are 1 day old, or 2 days old, or 3 days old. I've been thinking of writing a routine
