I try to connect to the same 3 hosts with the both versions (one then another i can't do it on the same time , not enough threads open).And I see that ver 1.5 use less bandwith (send rate) but the answers I get for same queries were the same .
I know that people want to save traffic , but when I use gnutella i want first be sure to have a lot of answer .I use gnutella because we can find rare files ....despite it costs a lot of bandwith .Who cares , it s free for me !So now if i want use new ver , i have to remove manually poor hosts in my connection panel .Annoying ...
