Buffer = upload - download.

Yep.

A buffer is the amount you can Download until you get a 1:1 ratio. For example if you have 70 gigs uploaded and 10 gigs downloaded, then u have a 60 gig buffer meaning you can download 60 gigs of stuff until you get a 1:1 ratio.

You count a buffer by what 1man said. Your Upload amount - your download amount.

Example

10 gigs uploaded - 6 gigs uploaded = 4 gigs buffer.

question is
if someone has a 1 giga buffer
and decides to download 1 giga rls
must he seed the 1 giga?

also depends on the site. Some sites dont allow hit and run even with a buffer. Know the rules at your tracker.

Buffer IS Upload - Download
Example : U Have Downloaded 2 gb , and uploaded 3 gb , the buffer is :: 3-2=1
the buffer here is 1 gb

If minimum ratio of site is 0.6
and i downloaded 100GB and uploaded 100GB
what about that 40GB

That has no bearing. A buffer is how much you've uploaded over your download, period.
