8 slots download /5 upload
i dont understand all this stuff..i just want to share fairly without my system going to hell....288U/576D kbps ...i normally leave it on unlimited bandwidth upload and 5 slots...anyone recommend anything else?i notice one will upload at 30kb/s while all the others are struggling on 1kb/s or 0.00kb/s more often than not!!!!!!
That fast 1 is almost always a leech!Quote:

Do a filesearch on the next one you see and abort them if they're not sharing and see if the others speed up.
You may have to abort the fast one, CLEAR the finished/aborted uploads quickly, then lower upload slots by 1 -- to kill the reconnecting leech.
how do you do a file search on a user? :huh:
s'ok i got it :rolleyes:
this is a poll, peeps, just give us ur numbers in kb/s.
also if u know the monthly bandwidth allocation that ur isp has allowed, that would be helpful too.
my isp give me:
1200kb/s down 350kb/s up average
6GB download 1GB upload monthly :)
576kbps down, 288kbps up
Unlimited download/upload :D
Oh man, I'm sorry -- those bandwidth monthly consumption limits (6GB download 1GB upload monthly) are worse than a 56k!Quote:

Mine's unlimited, but I manage about 1-4 GB down a day and 1.5-2.5 GB up a day.
30GB dl / 7.5GB ul a month.
I set mine to half the max on the upload side and the max on users. I figure theres nothing worse than waiting in a que. Plus i usually have something else going like ed, tb or irc.
Unfortunately, there IS something worse than waiting in a queue -- downloading at <0.1KB/sec tops. :(Quote:

(Or getting lots of disconnects as well AND corrupt downloads.)
EACH upload has overhead communication data that is not part of the file being sent. If there's too many uploads at once, the communication data is all you're sending -- very little FILE data (they're getting 1 byte of the file in each 41 byte ip packet...)
Setting uploads high enough so that they use up all your available bandwidth AND give out 1 KB/sec or more each is almost a must.
By keeping the uploads reasonable, they will also complete quicker, thus the queue (however long) is completed quicker.
10 uploads at once and a queue 10 long
is worse than
5 uploads at once and a queue 15 long
-- even though that's only 20 total in either case.
This is because the 5 uploads at once can go more than twice as fast as 10 uploads at once.
Make sense?
