@Toyoo

Why would the S3 backend be slow?

Short explanation:
Because it is. Right now.

Long explanation: Peering is expensive

@Alexey

You repeatidely false claim that Storj S3 is slow

If your router is not capable, well it’s not a Storj’s problem, right?

Not necessarily. My “router” (as if that is what is most important for speeds ) is capable of downloading 10Gbit. No matter if Ubuntu, Steam games, heck even small sites like computerbase.de. But not from STORJ. According to the forums, many others experience the same. There were 0 users that claimed to achieve 1Gbit but 4 users that admitted they can’t reach 1Gbit. I don’t know what more you need to know that your S3 is slow. What would it take to convince you?

@Alexey

Proofs, please. Otherwise it’s just a false claim.

Ok. Here you go: Slow downloads of TrueNAS updates (Switzerland)

Storj takes a balanced approach to dynamic scaling for simple and rational economic reasons. You can’t be 10x cheaper than Amazon while scaling on Amazon’s infrastructure.

Thanks for being honest and disproof Alexey.
And thank you for making it clear that STORJ can’t compete with AWS S3 performance! Some users even went so far to claim the opposite, that STORJ outperforms AWS
