    qBittorrent BitTorrent client

  • The source of qBittorent can be viewed here: https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent

  • libtorrent

    an efficient feature complete C++ bittorrent implementation

  • Looking at the code of libtorrent, used internally by most BitTorrent clients, it seems to use either mmap (when available) or ordinary blocking file I/O otherwise -- and there's a thread pool for I/O operations so that more than one can be happening at once. The size of the files isn't actually a problem for memory mapping unless you're using 32 bit pointers, which limits your address space.

  • InfluxDB
