I share almost 7,000 files, but I limit the number of files one person can download at one time. That has the advantage that since I share a wide variety of media formats & tastes, it allows a broader audience to download from me at same time. It stops one or two people 'hogging' all the upload slots. The disadvantage is that if a person selects too many files to download from me at one time, they get pushed off for that session, I occasionally see messages showing up, "Banned Greedy Servent", lol
(
Sample of this, which went on for about an hour btw, they must have selected thousands of files.) It was after that occasion I limited slots from 3 to 2 per person to be a little stricter.
