Comment (by ph33onix):
The reason I wanted the greater between all_time_download and total_done
was because it would be bigger than total_done and thus a safer ratio
estimation for private trackers.
After reading your comments I see that all_time_download is not what I
thought it was so it shouldn't be used.
However, using total_wanted_done seems even worse with regards to share
ratio on private trackers. You can start a torrent, download some data,
then deselect it and your client will no longer count it as necessary for
the ratio, but the tracker will.
In the case of public trackers, total_wanted_done will more accurately
represent what the user cares about, allowing him to share proportionally
to what he wanted to download.
These are fringe cases so either one can be used without much problem but,
for share ratio safety, total_done seems safer.
