Salut Gnome2, please say gnutella for G1. G1 is a shareaza invention to better market it's G2. First I'm in the same situation as you (as thousands of others using gnet). I have two LW on the home network and I compiled the one uploading the most to ban shareaza clients. They are not 100% leechers, but they take way too much compare to what they give. It is because Shareaza is a multinetwork P2P. It divides it's upload bandwidth between Gnutella, G2, ED2K and Bittorrent. For exemple, if you have 128kb upload bandwidth on Phex: you can upload 128kb on gnet minus the overhaed of connecting to one network. On Shareaza, if you enable all networks, that 128kbs is divided in 4 (32kb) minus the overhad for each protocol. Yes it sucks. That's why I hate multinetwork clients. On the defense of RAZA, they do share interesting content instead of Morpheus that does not share one bit of bandwidth with us.
