casync

17 1,463 2.4 C

Content-Addressable Data Synchronization Tool

Project mention: We reduced conda’s index fetch bandwidth by 99% | /r/Python | 2023-04-25

For arbitrary state changes however, it's better to use something like casync. Note that there are a lot of tunables, implicit and explicit; for package indexing I would particularly think about "how is the index sorted" and "what is the desired chunk size".
