No, I meant 150 kiloBYTES per second.  BitTorrent doesn't publish
download rates in bits per second, no ordinary program does, they always
use bytes per second.  Speeds well in excess of this are common using
BitTorrent, and even occasionally on FTP and HTTP downloads as well, for
well-connected sites.  Our speed record is something like 250 kilobytes
per second, yes 2 megabits per second more or less.
