Is BT really that magic, that one server and is enough to feed the
entire world ? I am impressed...maybe it's true, it would explain why I
get only 60KB/s no matter what mirror I try...
However, most people I guess stop their BT client once they have
finished to download the file, so with the hugh gap there is between DL
and UL BW (8:1 ratio for me: 1024K DL but only 128K UL...), BT off-loads
the server a bit but can't possibly do without it... I think ?
Waiting for some BT guru to correct me ;o)
