I must be connected to 30 computers. look



This can't be normal...?

I think that many connections by you as an ultrapeer is a feature of what they call "high outdegree" as explained in a message on the_gdf where they connect to more ultrapeers and lower the TTL of queries on the network to bring the network closer together and I think to also waste less bandwidth and lessen the chance of queries looping through the network.

The TTL isnt any different though. I'm using around 4mb in and out of bandwidth per second! :-/

The TTL is different. It used to be 6 or 7, now it's 3 or 4 and the queries are dynamically sent to use lower bandwidth.

An average of 4MB in/out is a pretty astounding achievement for an Ultrapeer. It used to be 8MB+ AND lots of information was flow controlled (meaning dropped because we were reaching the upload threshold and/or other hosts couldn't accept information that quickly). Now almost nothing is flow controlled and we're using less than half the bandwidth we used to, AND we're connected to more than triple the amount of hosts.

You probably mean 4KB per second outgoing traffic.

Yeah, I think I did mean that.
