Hi Mattias. Thanks for the reply. > Interesting find! That's what I thought! :) Since I use my own personal computer, I take a look every day, just to see if everything is fine. Because of that, I became curious to know if there is a good demand for the Debian images using BitTorrent instead of the the image server (cdimage.debian.org). Also, I gave a lightning talk on MiniDebConf Brazil this year about my experience serving the images with BitTorrent in order to encourage others to do the same, with the purpose of helping other users and to save the server. I might also write a little article about it in the future. > Unfortunately the main seeder doesn't keep track of historical data very > much, just a bunch of rtorrent processes in screens.

The demand to me increased from around 200 kbps to 2,000 kbps in the last few weeks, specifically because of these 'netinst' images. > On https downloads from cdimage.debian.org I don't see any big change.

Interesting that this pattern seems to be restricted to BitTorrent then. If you, or anyone else, notice something, please let me know. I'm curious to know what will happen after next weekend, with the release of 12.6 and the replacement of the 12.5 images. Felipe
