By 'same LAN', do you mean "same Ethernet, meaning no IP routing" or just "on the same premises so you have Gigabit speed and only a few milliseconds of latency"? I would expect that it is only performance that matters, and several-ms gigabit-speed is fine. I am also curious how well it works if say the pgsql server is 80 ms RTT away, with a link such that one can get 2 MB/s usually. I realize it's going to be slower, but I'm interested in hearing experience. > Geopackage isn't designed for multi-user editing. Two users using > Geopackage "read only" should work though.

When you do this, is it basically storing a blob with what would have been written to qgs in a table of projects? What happens if multiple people try to use the same project? Are changes by one person propagated back to others as they are opened? How are write-write conflicts handled? Or is the norm that projects are opened readonly by most people, and rarely changed? (Or the question I should have asked; I haven't tried to do multiuser qgis.) _______________________________________________ QGIS-User mailing list QGIS-User@lists.osgeo.org List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
