RE: Plans For Mirroring API Node Snapshot

in HiveDevs16 days ago (edited)

We set up torrents for the API node snapshots a while back (implemented via a web seed). In the future, we'll add a new torrent roughly once a week with the latest incremental update (and at some point just put up a fully new one I suppose).
Torrent links can be found here: https://snapshots.hive.blog/

This page is probably going to be updated shortly: it was just two torrents, one with "first snapshot" and the 2nd with a set of the incremental snapshots, but we're going to move to one torrent per snapshot.

Currently we only have two seeds for the torrents, so we could use some more volunteers. If you're going to be a seed, just seed the full one for now and wait till we get the one snapshot per torrent to seed the rest.

Note that anyone can help us seed the torrents, you don't have to be an API node operator to help out, you just need 2.5TB of storage space (e.g hard drive) and a connection with a reasonable upload speed.

Didn’t know you already had the torrent up. I’ll let you know when my copy is up!
