Max Connection? #61

Closed akira-kun closed 1 year ago

akira-kun commented 2 years ago

What is the max of users connections does bugout can handle? More mesh servers can increase the number of connections?

Bugout uses a wide gossip protocol, which means that peers can be indirectly connected to each other through partial mesh. The Tracker servers used to initially connect peers are no longer involved once the initial connections are established. From there, the gossip protocol handles relaying the messages between peers. As far as I know load testing has not yet been performed on Bugout, so I don't know if there is a maximum number of connections. The biggest limitation I've found is the tracker servers themselves becoming overloaded and failing to establish the initial connections.
