Comment(by mo):

 From what I see, Bittorrent Sync simply uses magnet URIs. It thus cannot
 be "faster", although it might appear to be since for local sync you find
 peers using local peer discovery and not the DHT.

 Magnet URIs for /dist are now available and should be sent out/used by
 Gettor. See #6978.
