So in summary, for the small file the two networks were comparable - 
1:30ish vs 2:00ish. For the ISO, I'm not sure if there was any 
conclusion?

My 2 cents: Inserts are much faster after the changes to load limiting 
just before xmas, or at least, they should be. Generally freenet 0.7 
uses close to the bandwidth limit now, which it certainly didn't before.

Comments?
