I understand that to mean effectively that you are "opening" the image across the net - so eventually you need to whole image transmitted, but you don't have to wait for the whole thing before you start running it. cheers -ben On Fri, Aug 25, 2017 at 2:00 AM, Dimitris Chloupis <kilon.alios@gmail.com> wrote:
Indeed that can be a barrier but why you would want to transmit an entire image instead of portion of it using something like fuel files or other binary formats ? It would dramatically reduce the size of data you transmit.

Or you want to minimize initial startup time, including the time it takes to transmit the entire system over the net.
