torrent VS go-micro

https://github.com/anacrolix/torrent has a fuse driver since 2013. I'm in the early stages of removing it. There are WebDAV, 3rd party FUSE, and HTTP wrappers of the client all doing similar things: serving magnet links, infohashes, and torrent files like an immutable filesystem. BitTorrent v2 support is currently in master.

I'm the author of https://github.com/anacrolix/torrent (started in 2013) and https://github.com/anacrolix/dht (started in 2015). I have a DHT indexer implementation I developed in 2021. It's currently closed source but available for use as part of https://www.coveapp.info/. I have found that after several hours the search is excellent and stays up to date with ease.

https://github.com/anacrolix/torrent/blob/master/cmd/torrent... does exactly that. Install with `go get github.com/anacrolix/torrent/cmd/torrent@latest`, and then run `torrent serve `.

Hit me up if you want to discuss using BitTorrent to back images. https://github.com/anacrolix/torrent

It has some small latency but only when resources are spread across many different infos. If you can constrain your resources to a single DHT traversal, it's pretty quick. I run several services that stream from BitTorrent on demand, using https://github.com/anacrolix/torrent which are surprisingly quick to start. However it does choke up when you try to start many different resources at once, which multiplies horizontally the number of DHT traversals, and per-torrent related overhead to get started.

It is solvable, but any solution that spreads resources out across many different targets in the DHT is slow. Basically anything that was inspired by BitTorrent, but isn't BitTorrent itself does this, because they get overly excited by deduplication of data.

For whatever reason the ARM version Transmission does not work well on my M2 laptop - it downloads quickly at first and then drops off to zero. I tried playing around with different settings, running their nightly builds, etc, and nothing fixed it for me. In the end I searched for other clients and found them all filled with ads and bloatware, and decided to use this excellent open source command line client instead:

https://github.com/anacrolix/torrent

It has a few frontends built on top of it (linked in the project readme), but I just run `torrent download ` and it downloads at full speed / with no issues.

The use case is in the refactoring in https://github.com/anacrolix/torrent/compare/smartban...lazylog. A lot of the parameters moved around as part of a performance optimization in https://github.com/anacrolix/log/compare/lazylog.

Had similar goals. Started by writing Go interfaces for it with Go Micro - https://go-micro.dev then opted for the platform service model as you mentioned with Micro - https://micro.dev

I think whether it's Dapr, Micro or something else, the platform service model with well defined interfaces is the way to go. I don't think a lot of people get this yet so it's still going to be a few years before it takes off.

Good luck Buf! I spent many years building an RPC framework around gRPC called Go Micro (https://github.com/asim/go-micro). I think one of the biggest issues was just resources to see it through but also my own desire to move beyond it towards a platform and services. I hope you're able to bring some sense to the gRPC world. It's mostly a networking library. The ecosystem around it is too low level. If anything abstractions and more developer friendly tooling would be a massive improvement. No one needs to see or touch the guts of gRPC. I wish I didn't have to peak into the internals but unfortunately that's what it takes to integrate it elsewhere.

I hope you build something awesome for the community!
