I was actually considering (perhaps) using Paxos in combination with a DHT of some sort. I don't see how a DHT can provide an election or lease service, or even provide mutable state, so I don't think it would suffice for the system I have in mind. However I still have a lot of reading to do so I'm probably completely wrong on all points. > Any rate here is a link to paxos. > http://klinewoods.com/papers/p2paxos.pdf Thanks, I started reading that paper last night but hadn't realized it included performance results. I was somewhat discouraged after seeing "P2's lack of concurrency control and well defined execution semantics provided a source difficult bugs and race conditions, and we remain uncertain as to wether or not our implementation is robust" in the abstract and moved on. -Jack _______________________________________________ p2p-hackers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zooko.com/mailman/listinfo/p2p-hackers
