Maybe it's just me, but I have never gotten any speed advantage using Bittorrent for anything. Ever. It's always been at least a magnitude faster just to go get the file in the usual way.

To get any reasonable speed other clients need to be able to contact you, ie. open up an incoming port if you can. (Take the usual precautions when doing so though, such as closing the port when you are done, running the client as a non-privileged user, etc.) -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
