Parallel compiling systems (distcc, icecream, teambuilder). Git vs subversion (or perforce). Not a joke; googles search. Not from a user perspective, naturally. But their filesystem and internal databases. Wait, let me get a link; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_File_System and since I'm on wikipedia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_rendering Thinking about it; one inherent trait of successful distributed systems is that they are fractal-like. Not one huge mesh, but islands that connect. Bitcoin core does something similar, but it doesn't really. The 'ping' score for connections is unreliable and its not really used to propagate smartly... -- Thomas Zander _______________________________________________ bitcoin-dev mailing list bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-dev
