aquatic: high-performance open BitTorrent tracker\n\n[![CI](https://github.com/greatest-ape/aquatic/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/greatest-ape/aquatic/actions/workflows/ci.yml)\n\nHigh-performance open BitTorrent tracker, consisting\nof sub-implementations for different protocols:\n\n[aquatic_udp]: ./crates/udp\n[aquatic_http]: ./crates/http\n[aquatic_ws]: ./crates/ws\n\n| Name           | Protocol                                  | OS requirements    |\n|----------------|-------------------------------------------|--------------------|\n| [aquatic_udp]  | BitTorrent over UDP                       | Unix-like          |\n| [aquatic_http] | BitTorrent over HTTP, optionally over TLS | Linux 5.8 or later |\n| [aquatic_ws]   | WebTorrent, optionally over TLS           | Linux 5.8 or later |\n\nFeatures at a glance:\n\n- Multithreaded design for handling large amounts of traffic\n- All data is stored in-memory (no database needed)\n- IPv4 and IPv6 support\n- Supports forbidding/allowing info hashes\n- Prometheus metrics\n- Automated CI testing of full file transfers\n\nKnown users:\n\n- [explodie.org public tracker](https://explodie.org/opentracker.html) (`udp://explodie.org:6969`), typically [serving ~100,000 requests per second](https://explodie.org/tracker-stats.html)\n- [tracker.webtorrent.dev](https://tracker.webtorrent.dev) (`wss://tracker.webtorrent.dev`)\n\n## Performance of the UDP implementation\n\n![UDP BitTorrent tracker throughput](./documents/aquatic-udp-load-test-2024-02-10.png)\n\nMore benchmark details are available [here](./documents/aquatic-udp-load-test-2024-02-10.md).\n\n## Usage\n\nPlease refer to the README pages for the respective implementations listed in\nthe table above.\n\n## Auxiliary software\n\nThere are also some auxiliary applications and libraries.\n\n### Tracker load testing\n\nLoad test applications for aquatic and other trackers, useful for profiling:\n\n- [aquatic_udp_load_test](./crates/udp_load_test/) - BitTorrent over UDP\n- [aquatic_http_load_test](./crates/http_load_test/) - BitTorrent over HTTP\n- [aquatic_ws_load_test](./crates/ws_load_test/) - WebTorrent\n\nAutomated benchmarking of aquatic and other trackers: [aquatic_bencher](./crates/bencher/)\n\n### Client ⇄ tracker communication\n\nLibraries for communication between clients and trackers:\n\n- [aquatic_udp_protocol](./crates/udp_protocol/) - BitTorrent over UDP\n- [aquatic_http_protocol](./crates/http_protocol/) - BitTorrent over HTTP\n- [aquatic_ws_protocol](./crates/ws_protocol/) - WebTorrent\n\n### Other\n\n- [aquatic_peer_id](./crates/peer_id/) - extract BitTorrent client information\n  from peer identifiers\n\n## Copyright and
