    Hi,

    Today i downloaded couple of movies from ET (R.I.P now)...and the downloading speed was absolutely crazy…I downloaded a 750MB movie in only 25 minutes….and the other movie was 520MB or so which was downloaded in only 17 minutes…I couldn’t believe when I saw the downloading speed going on way over 520 Kb/s.

    I have adsl connection and this has never happened before….its just crazy. I hope I get this speed in the future as well.

    Just thought of sharing my experience!

    OK so the movie(s) were downloaded at 520Kb/s+ speed, but for some reason the uploading speed in only 9-10 KB/s.

    I have set the upload speed to 50 Kb/s, and still its only going around 9-10 KB/s. Why is that?

    Yeah, for something that downloaded that fast, there's probably a large amount of seeders and all the leechers will have it done in no time as well.

    Yeah, there's too much seeders (uploaders) and there's too few leechers downloading that file. So in other in other words there's really not ehough leechers connected to you so your upload speed wont be at full speed, because it isnt neccessary.
    Anyway download speed is another reason why private torrent sites ( those that require registering) are the best.

    thats what u get on private trackers, u download ur file at max speed but u wont be able to upload it at max, the only way to max out ur upload is when that file gets released, as soon as they get released there will be lacked of seeders so any lil bit helps to seed.
