Quick question about the difference in speeds

[jimmypop86]

I have one file that is downloading at

File 1 - Seeds - 77(3771) Peers - 1(283) Down Speed - 622.6kB/s

Another file is

File 2 - Seeds - 22(904) Peers - 58 (6751) Down Speed 10.9kB/s

I understand File 1 has more seeds, but is there some sort of a ratio between seeds and the actual people you connect to?

File 2 has 30+ folks at 100% completion, but is only connected to a few of them. Also File 2 was started first. Nothing happens to File 2's speed even if it is the only file downloading/uploading.

I just didn't know why there would be a difference in speed or why uTorrent only connects to some folks and not others.

First one is supply heavy, second one is demand heavy.

Follow the connection setup guide to improve your speeds.
