Wondering, this is in regards to being an ultrapeer; I've noticed downloads slow to almost a snail's pace when I'm an ultrapeer. It's great to have so many leaves, hosts and peers but if some specific connections slow download time is it really so great? It could be, and probably is that certain host addresses should be filtered out because they aren't as good as others. For example, if the I/O column registers in thousands logic suggests these are faster hosts as opposed to hundreds and doubles registers. Just curious, what's the highest and best number for maximum downloads? Currently, I've set mine at 125, but I also have set it to 150 and 175.
Keep me posted,
