Smart way to deal with torrents

[sharpnova]

Hi. I'd like to share a means of getting torrents a bit faster. I've been doing this for some while with great success.

Say there's a seed who uploads at a solid 300 k/sec. I found myself getting about 15k of that pie. I wanted more. So I initiated more and more connections with him until I was grabbing half the bandwidth. In addition, I set the file priorities up just right so that the connections were all downloading different bits of the torrent.

It works great and gives surprisingly awesome results.

Oh and when the torrent was finished it thinks I just haev a bunch of incomplete torrents so it doesn't consider me a seed. NOT THAT I'D SEED ANYWAYS!

There's always some shmuck willing to seed. Why bother seeding when you can leech instead.

We aren't interested in helping leechers, unfortunately.
