  • Tools developed from Stadia's ashes for syncing and streaming files between Windows and Linux using Content Defined Chunking (CDC).
  • cdc_rsync optimizes file syncing by skipping unchanged files, using fast compression, and transferring only changed parts, making it up to 30x faster than traditional rsync.
  • cdc_stream allows for efficient file streaming from Windows to Linux with caching and delta updates, offering 2x to 5x speed improvements over sshfs.
  • Both tools leverage CDC for efficient diffing, reducing data transfer by focusing on changed chunks rather than entire files.
  • Setup requires SSH and SFTP access without password prompts, with support for key-based authentication and optional SSH config files.
  • Precompiled binaries are available for quick setup, with detailed instructions for building from source on both Windows and Linux platforms.
  • Debugging and logging options are provided for troubleshooting, including verbosity levels and log file locations.
