I'm talking PER FILE. There may be many simultaneous transfers. The main reason for this is that nodes typically run on ADSL, which typically has a grand total of 16kB/sec uplink bandwidth, and they will normally be transferring several files at once. If you are downloading a page with a bunch of images on, it's not unreasonable to expect 3kB/sec (once they get started) PER IMAGE, within your available bandwidth. A splitfile uses 30 simultaneous connections (or more) - 90kB/sec or more is not unheard of for large file downloads on Freenet. > > I'm wondering what the 'Node Bandwidth Limits' settings should be.

No. The real default is 12kB/sec IIRC.
