I guess this got somehow mixed up with VOD in this thread. The problem distributing live streams is less the cpu/memory load than the available network bandwidth. I'm curious if that could be solved using Terracotta... Mark de Jong [NetMasters BV] schrieb: > Hi Martijn, Timon and Dan, > > Why should it be I/O intensive?
