Henry Litwhiler typeth: | Yeah, the round-robin approach should work. It is going to be a /very/ | small amount of data being sent - just enough so that every user knows | that something has been posted.
The amount of data isn't so much the problem, but having recipients come back to pick up the news is a lot more traffic - getting TCP connections organized, especially with HTTP that isn't bidirectional. Why have them come back to you if they can have the info immediately with close to no latency? | We don't want users buying web hosting to host their GNU Social | installs. If we do that, it becomes (effectively) a /service/, that they | have to /pay for/ to use. That simply should not have to happen. Huh.. that would throw us back to DHTs or cloud service things sponsored by nice people. I don't see any architecture work without any servers at all. -- ___ psyc://psyced.org/~lynX ___ irc://psyced.org/welcome ___ ___ xmpp:[email protected] ____ https://psyced.org/PSYC/ _____
