we do not need 'swarmed downloads', do you understand the word swarmed? Gnutella developers are researching ways to avoid/reduce broadcast traffic (which is the number one cause of the network being so slow at the moment). Broadcast traffic takes up ~50% of your bandwidth which means that other half is divided up for downloading and uploading. Xolox or whatever is hurting the gnutella network, Vinnie even said so himself.

it produces "machine generated queries: which wastes bandwidth b/c those queries are not efficent in matching enough files other hosts have.

Xolox is bad for the network. Load up LimeWire and look in the Monitor window and look how many

Band - Song 01.mp3 type of queries you get. How many people are going to have that file in that exact filename. They may of named it a little different so that query just wasted bandwidth. It would me efficent to such just for that song name or band name and filter the results with a set of rules.
