Public bug reported: Binary package hint: apt
apt should be using bittorrent to speed downloads of upgrades and new package installs. Instead of mirroring the packages at many locations and allowing people to download from only one mirror, each participating party should be a bittorrent seeder who can stream data to whoever is downloading at the time, maximizing download speeds. ** Affects: apt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- apt does not use bittorrent to speed downloads https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152413 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
