Neither do I, but then I'm only on a 2Mbit line so get a maximum of about 220-230KB/s >I do a 25K up and get a max of 130K down and that one combined >downloads. Individual downloads seldem go above 75K. Depending on what I've downloaded, I don't often see more than about half my maximum downstream bandwidth. The best I managed was when I downloaded the FC4 ISOs, and that one didn't get above 150KB/s. When I downloaded the beta-2 ISOs, I managed a whole 20KB/s. Not a good experience, and one that stopped me from fetching the other SUSE ISOs via bittorrent. >So that is the reason I use FTP. I rather download at 500K then at 75K. So would I and, in the case of the 10.0 final, I downloaded the delta.isos, created the OSS CD ISOs and am now sharing them. My upload may be restricted to 20KB/s, since I only have a 30KB/s upload, and I'll only be seeding them for about a week, but it still helps. >I use Azureus. Same here.
