Why is UDP faster than FTP / TCP?

The main difference between UDP and TCP is that UDP wastes no time communicating about the receipt of a block of data so that regardless of network latency, data transmission remains constant.


Goals

• Development started in February 2014 (prototype in Nov 2013)
