Hi there, so I'ma newbie a bit, but I have one observation I would really like explained.
So I'm downloading something say a popular torrent like Smallville... I'm getting 5-20 kb/s sometimes. I see those on the list who have got 100% of the file, but I never seem to download from them. Why? Are they leeching? or does G3 collectivty cycle through all those after that torrent making sure everyone gets a shot at downloading from the 100% people (and I just haven't seen it...)
I see from something like tvtorrents that the swarm speed is 17000 kb/s, yet I get 5-10 kb/s... towards the end, I was getting 180, but with that # of people downloading, and that many people at 100%, I couldn't understand why not a better transfer.
Even when I leave my file T 100%, I never see many people connecting.... (I'm on cable 2 MB/s for the record no firewall using G3 1.01
