Hi,
I think rather than have people decide to either have always slow
bandwidth or always full bandwith open to downloaders, a choice is better for
the gnutella network as a whole.
I suggest that in the preferences block inside gtk-gnutella settings that time
dependent bandwidth bandwith control be possible.
As a for instance:
A person who is gone during the normal work day, and sleeping normal hours may
only have hands on his computer from 7pm-10pm.
So, he could set the GTK-Gnutella bandwith controls for:
unregulated hours - Full bandwidth both in and out available to gtk-gnutell
10PM-7PM
or perhaps easier to understand:
regulated hours 7PM-10PM enable bandwidth controls.
Such a setting would allow a user to leave full bandwith open to gtk-gnutella
most of the time and only limit bandwidth during certain hours.
I think this would be good for the gnutella network as a whole because it would
curb the tendency of users to limit gtk-gnutella bandwidth 24/7.
