I was talking about the same thing. The number of upload requests should be the same when running as an ultrapeer as when running as a leaf. The only thing that could keep you from uploading is that you have to devote bandwidth to relaying messages. - If you have more ultrapeers the number of relayed messages should remain more or less the same so each ultrapeer would have to relay fewer messages. If there are more ultrapeers but the the upload capacity per ultrapeer is increased, you should not loose anything.

Morpheus doesn't have that many users anymore. Both BearShare and LimeWire have a lot more users.
