◉ Ezserver (Memory-Based Streaming): Streams video directly from memory, ensuring faster data transfer and reduced reliance on disk operations.
◉ XUI, Xtream UI and FFMpeg-based Panels. (Disk-Based Streaming): Relies on saving video files to disk and serving them via a web server, which introduces latency and potential disk bottlenecks.
Comparative Analysis
Aspect
Ezserver
(Memory-Based Streaming)
XUI, Xtream UI, etc.
(Disk-Based Streaming)
Video Storage
Uploads video links and temporarily stores them in memory with a buffer size.
Uploads video links and uses ffmpeg to save video data to disk in file format.
Streaming Mechanism
Streams videos directly from memory to connected players.
Streams videos by having players access saved files via nginx.
Streaming Speed
Faster due to memory-based streaming.
Slower, as it requires disk read operations.
Mass Connections
Efficiently handles mass connections as streaming is memory-based.
Disk access may become a bottleneck, causing blocked issues under heavy load.
Disk Usage
Minimal disk usage, reducing risks of disk crashes.
High disk usage, increasing the risk of disk failure.
