Live Mesh & Bandwith

[NewsBot]

Hi all,

 

So I watch all the video's about Live Mesh but one thing is still not very clear to me.

 

LETS SAY:

 

I have 2 machines (a desktop and a laptop) both running mesh client. And i share a folder on my desktop with 50GB of photo's.

 

1)First thing it does, it puts this folder in the local database on my desktop.

2) Then feedsync syncs my local database with the one in the cloud.

3) My laptop see's these changes en copie's them to his local database.

4) ?? the client gives me a notise there is a new folder with lots of data in it, but doesn't show begin copying the photo's yet ??

 

This is the traject of wat the META data (clean text) is doing, so this doesn't consume mush bandwith.

 

But what road do the files (automaticly take?)

 

So these are my questions:

 

1) Does mesh automatycly begin uploading all the photo's to the web (bandwith !!) ?

2) Does my laptop know that my desktop is on the same lan and begin copying those files trough the lan network, or does it ask the cloud to git it?

3) Does my laptop do this automaticly when i'm on the same lan ?

4) If my devices don't have an internet connection but both of them have a local, mesh database (dheu) and both of them are on the same LAN, do those two local databases sync ?

 

Bandwith is a problem many of us suffer frome these days...
