I got 10Mb down and 1Mb up band. up seems to be quite constant upon users (when the down slows with distance) but so, it needs ten seeding users for one downloading. usually this number is largely out passed if the seeders get the connexion open for at least 24 hours, but the bt default is much less in fact the first contact I have with BT was odd because the first version of Ktorrent could not retsrain the upload and my connexion was filled by BT :-(. The native pilot got the trick. AFAIK Bittorrent was build to cope with large iso files download, with very great numbers of simultaneous users jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
