    If we go by your "law of probability" then as time passes there will lesser leechers as well thus nullifying the effect on swarm speeds. Thus, the swarm speeds are ultimately effected by number of leechers/seeders only. Also, what happened to the other point? Can you give any insights in...

    lol!!! you don't need to, cos you have no idea what you are talking about. ---------- Stop spreading the FUD man. BwT admins would never say anything so stupid. Show me a single comment where ANY BwT admin/mod says that they can control speed and I will retract every word I wrote...

    This whole long paragraph you wrote just has one conclusion and it is that torrent speed depends on the number of seeders and peers and NOT THE DATE ON WHICH IT WAS CREATED. Seriously man, no matter what happens after 3 years the issue still depends on seeds:peers ratio and not date of creation...

    Just so that you recollect, this is what you said Now... Why? How does date matter? Will a torrent with 10 as seeds:leech ratio created 2 years ago be slower than one having 0.5 or 1 ratio created yesterday? Why and how does date of creation effect torrent's health? VBTT is just a frontend...

    Mounting Windows partitions in Ubuntu linux

    Ever considered moving to reiserfs? You are seriously missing lots of performance by using ext3 instead of reiserfs. Not just of Xine... amaroK supports 7 backends and xine is just one of them. you should try amaroK with gstreamer instead of xine. you will get the best experience.

    Why Ubuntu?

    No hard feelings here as well but I wanted to know that why so much hype about Ubuntu. Thats all and the official site you link me to is not much of help. If you have that much of RAM then you won't be needing much swap. If you don't plan on using software suspend then imho you should just...

    Why Ubuntu?

    What??? I didn't get you. I just wanted to know that which features of Ubuntu is making it get so much hype and you just told me that you are working on god knows how many distros. What did you intend to say? You will never use that much of swap. Use 1.5-2 times of your RAM as swap. That is...
