This swarming effect though if it always starts at the beginning and progresses itself through the file, which is what I have seen wouldnt it be better for a more random distribution of the chunks? Like instead of picking up chunks in what it looks like 100k then skip 100k then get 100k wouldnt it be more efficient for the swarm if each chunk of 100k came from a pseudo-random part of the file? Or does it actually do this?
Also can you answer why I never see a connection to a LimeWire Ultrapeer when they take up well over 90% of my ups. I know there has to be some out there, but why am I not connecting to them. |
