Re: FS replication level

Hi,

the replication level defines to what degree a degree the data is 
(redundantly) replicated.

Say, at replication level 0 your file is divided into blocks,
exactly 1 peer would be authoritative in the DHT for that block and 
store it.
With a replication level of 1, one additional peer is also caching that 
block. With a level of 2, there are three peers holding a copy of that 
block.

As you can see, this helps when the network as a lot of churn to keep 
the data available. The larger the value, the better the availability, 
but the less (space) efficient it is.
