This is a cool feature that I've idly wondered about in the past, but I didn't know it was actually spec'd/implemented in Bittorrent.

You could imagine hierarchically pushing the entire of TPB or whatever into the DHT. And even, each torrent having an `index.html` that renders a page containing links to the rest of the sub-torrents, so that the entire site is hosted in the DHT.

Right, and we saw some examples of Sqlite+torrent in the past; those databases could be made editable more easily (although it would be nice to de-duplicate unchanged parts, not sure if sqlite DBs can be chunked).

Not necessarily sqlite, that said. It might be useful for openstreetmap tiles/db, or indeed repositories like library genesis, wikidata/wikipedia dumps, etc.

Oh that’s an interesting idea. I saw someone built SQLite over HTTP with the Range header: https://phiresky.github.io/blog/2021/hosting-sqlite-database...

So presumably in a similar manner as https://github.com/phiresky/sql.js-httpvfs you could map SQLite pages to leaf torrents too and get the chunking you are looking for.
