SFTP.NET (General questions)

by Carlos Triassi, Thursday, August 05, 2004, 23:23 (7416 days ago)


So far, I'm doing preliminary testing, and it looks good.

Two technical questions:

How SFTP.NET handles throttling bandwitdh? We're going to have a great backend infrastructure, and we could expect 9,000 simultaneous connections.

What is the download ratio between FTP and SFTP?

I'll be greatly appreciated if you can get back to me ASAP.

Thanks,
Carlos.

Carlos,

wodSFTP.NET does not have any special bandwidth throttling - each connection works in separate thread, so it will depend on winsock to decide when will which thread send/receive data.

As for speed? Usually SFTP is slightly slower than FTP, but NET version is considerably slower than FTP, I assume this is expected since code is exactly the same as in ActiveX version, but NET by itself slows it down. I think your tests will show this.

Hope I helped.
