[/quote']What Gugolplex is saying is plainly quite clear (even if English is not his native language)I checked and agree with him, µTorrent have overwritten the (3.4 Beta build 30239) download with a (3.4 Alpha build 30242) which does not work properly. It has happened before and their configuration control seems to be virtually non existent.Not all of us are fluent in all languages as Rafi appears to be,although we try to read a post properly before we comment on it.

ciaobaby Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 That's how CDNs work, there are multiple data centres with multiple servers and requests is sent to the cheapest ('cheapest' as in least cost routing terms NOT monetary) node with available resources to handle the request, and updating content to a CDN follows a similar principle because updating the data to ALL nodes at the same instance would result in a resource drain on the network, and as CDNs are intended for high availability, anything that can create a very high burst of activity is avoided, as it would be a bit pointless for a CDN to be creating a DoS attack on it's own system from time to time. Your results are simply the net effect of that'rolling' or staggered updating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiemelati Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 That's how CDNs work.I understand that but I am curious about the 1,065,296 Byte files with different Build numbers and no Change-Logs that mysteriously appear and and dissappear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
