It would be interesting to also try this on more underpowered systems. E.g. aging armv5-based NAS boxes. Would we have similar performance improvements, or any improvements would be hampered by poor I/O performance and architectural inefficiencies?

Built this cdc tool for software update of embedded (Linux) systems and have deployed it with good enough performance on a couple of arm CPUs; https://github.com/oll3/bita

Though main goal has been keeping data usage low rather than speed up.

I may add this (and it fits somewhat nicely with file transfer..)

Content Defined Chunking is one of my favorite algorithms because it has some "magic" similar to HyperLogLogs, Bloom filters, etc... This algorithm is good to explain to people, to get them inspired by computer science. I usually explain the simplest variant with rolling hashes. It is interesting what the result will be (average saving on deduplication) if it is applied globally to a large-scale blob storage, such as…
