UDR utilizes rsync as the transport mechanism, but sends the data over the UDT protocol, which enables huge amounts of data to be downloaded efficiently over long distances.</p> <p> Protocols like http, ftp and rsync can have a problem in that the further away the download source is from the user, the slower the speed becomes. Protocols like UDT/UDR allow for many UDP packets to be sent in batch, thus allowing for much higher transmit speeds over long distances. UDR will be especially useful for users who are downloading from places that are far away from California. The US East Coast and the international community will likely see much higher download speeds by using UDR rather than rsync, http or ftp. - <a href="goldenPath/newsarch.html#030415">Read more</a>. + <a href="goldenPath/newsarch.html#030315">Read more</a>. <hr> <p> <font face="courier" size="3"><b>26 February 2015 - New Training Video!</b></font> <p> Ever wondered how to find the tables associated with your favorite Browser track?
