<html><head/><body><p><span style=" font-weight:600;">Streaming </span>causes the transfer to request 1MB file chunks in increasing order, facilitating preview while downloading. <span style=" font-weight:600;">Random</span> is purely random and favors swarming behavior. <span style=" font-weight:600;">Progressive</span> is a compromise, selecting the next chunk at random within less than 50MB after the end of the partial file. That allows some randomness while preventing large empty file initialization times.</p></body></html>

<html><head/><body><p>Anonymous tunnels can be end-o-end encrypted. In order to maintain backward compatibility, this can be made optional (choosing "Accepted"), but in the end, all Retroshare nodes will be switched to "Enforced", meaning that all anonymous transfers will be end-to-end encrypted. With "Accepted", it is likely that you will transfer using twice as many tunnels, since there is no way to know that an encrypted and a clear tunnel actually transfer from the same source.</p></body></html>
