Went to grab the latest F7 iso via BitTorrent. 700 MB for KDE live. It's been running on a line with no other traffic, I've got it throttled up as high as possible. It was being pokey (40 KB/s down, 80 KB/s up), and had about 5 hours to go, so I started goofing around.
Found a 2.7 GB DVD iso for the main distro. Clicked on the http link out of some place in the Netherlands. Same line as the BitTorrent connection. 50 minutes later I have a DVD burned and ready to play with Meanwhile, the torrent still has 4:12 to go. Well, I'm not using the line for anything else, so what the hell, I'll let it sit open all day. Usually the torrent has been considerably faster. Interesting on a cloudy, rainy Friday, stuck here in Milwaukee with the Atlanta blues again.
