Does anyone have performance metrics on large scale IPFS implementations? If so what kind of implementations are they?!

The most generic example I can think of is something like a large file on AWS S3 and how quickly it downloaded for a global user-base versus a well saturated IPFS store for the same global user-base.

Just curious!

@tglea27 I am also looking for the same metrics, did you manage to get the data? If so, please share the same.

Thanks.

Hi @tglea27 did you come across any tools to do the same?
