    &gt; Return control back to the user after most (not all) of the PUT RPCs have succeeded and continue with the remaining ones in the background.<p>Making things faster by doing less (and not the same) been speeding up computing since forever! Can&#x27;t help but feel like it&#x27;s slightly misleading to call the providing (&quot;publishing&quot;) faster when it&#x27;s not actually doing the same, it&#x27;s just that most parts turned async instead of waiting for confirmation.<p>Wouldn&#x27;t this lead to the problem where the user things everything been provided properly, but once others try to find it, the records haven&#x27;t yet been published? As far as I understand, it&#x27;d still take mostly the same amount of time until the entire CID (not just some of them) are available to others, the only thing that got &quot;faster&quot; is the end-user UX of the one providing?

    Is it also possible to speed up lookup? I never used IPFS much as it took several minutes to find a cid.

      Actually, lookup is super fast - CID lookup is consistently &lt;200ms from the EU [0]. The original slowness came mostly from stale records and NAT’d peers that were indexed in the DHT which has since been mostly resolved.<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;probelab.io&#x2F;ipfs&#x2F;dht&#x2F;#chart-ipfs-dht-lookup-performance-ts" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;probelab.io&#x2F;ipfs&#x2F;dht&#x2F;#chart-ipfs-dht-lookup-performa...</a>

      When’s the last time you tried? It must be much faster now. Check: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;probelab.io&#x2F;ipfs&#x2F;dht&#x2F;#chart-ipfs-dht-lookup-performance-ts" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;probelab.io&#x2F;ipfs&#x2F;dht&#x2F;#chart-ipfs-dht-lookup-performa...</a>

    Are the defaults still leaking your whole internal and external IP allocations to the dHT still?<p>Its security posture was absolutely fucking gross the last time I reviewed it.<p>And of course, there&#x27;s a shitcoin bolted on as well. Last thing I want to do is feed into FileCoin. Of course, everything new these days has some financial inaction crap bolted on to entice speculators and ilk.
