Function: approximateOverheadForRedundancyLevel()

approximateOverheadForRedundancyLevel(chunks, level, encrypted): number

Defined in: core-sdk/src/erasure-coding/levels.ts:95

Returns an approximate multiplier for the storage overhead of uploading chunks data shards at the given redundancy level: use it to estimate how many extra chunks will be stored (chunks * overhead) for that upload.

Computed directly from getParities' exact tables above rather than a separate estimation table - bee-js's own redundancy.ts had a second, independent set of tables for this that turned out to be a rougher approximation of the same data (one threshold short per level), not a genuinely different computation.

Parameters
