How much memory does TurboGold require for each concurrent replication?
A. A conservative estimate is 128 KB of virtual memory per replication. TurboGold maintains a 20 KB back-off buffer and is continually monitoring the status of its outbound channels to keep this buffer saturated. When the buffer is saturated it causes TurboGold’s acceleration process to “back-off” so as not to consume unnecessary system resources. Documents are retrieved at the highest layer (in blocks up to 64 KB) and are fed through the TurboGold compressor, which monitors the saturation point of the 20 KB back off buffer.
