This reminds me of a question I've been meaning to ask. Several days ago I installed an OC 4.0.6 server on Ubuntu 12.04 server. Setup went well, no problems. Then I installed the 1.0.3 sync client on my Kubuntu 12.04 laptop. The sync client operated as expected, but I noticed it was frequently chatting with the server even when I there was nothing to do. Even with no changes to files in the sync folder on the server or laptop, it appeared that every 10 seconds or so, approximately 200 KiB of traffic would exchange. Is this because WebDAV has no push notification mechansim, therefore the client has to keep polling the server for changes? If so, are there plans to offer another kind of sync mechanism, perhaps something based on Unison and inotify? This is important for people who might run OC on, say, Amazon Web Services, where bandwidth usage incurs monetary costs. ...Steve _______________________________________________ Owncloud mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/owncloud
