Re: Favour seeders perhaps?

What if you give more bandwidth to those that give you more bandwidth? There might be another rationale for this... Favouring local peers. Cable and DSL companies wouldn't be crying quite so much if bittorrent peers INSIDE their networks shared MORE data amongst THEMSELVES. By keeping peers exchang...

Long story short, if I buy 1 megabit, I can use up around 100k a second, in either direction, at any time throughout the day, with an allowance for brief peaks of 90 minutes per day. My problem ...
