So you perhaps can name some clients that are slow and others that are fast? I seldom use BitTorrent, but sometimes and have tested several clients, without noticing a big difference, excepted from the provided options, such as faking the IP. > - phase of the moon, etc. I like obscure phenomenons :D, btw. I experienced poltergeist effects, but no poltergeists was that kind, that he/she/it does something while I'm watching :D, seemingly poltergeists are cowards ;). It's likely that not the gravitation of the moon opened a drawer, neither it's likely that a poltergeist did it, I guess a spy from the NSA did, when I leaved the kitchen for a short toilet visit, so there wasn't time to close the drawer, the spy had to escape, before I was back. Now the USA does know how many teaspoons I own. > Also bittorrent can stress your system in interesting ways (e.g. it > generates a lot of I/O) and requires decent networking stack and > hardware. If you do something were those resources are very important, than you can notice unwanted side effects for nearly everything, perhaps not for echo "hallo world". IMO real-time audio still is a textbook example for hypersensitivity, but I suspect using a torrent client would allow even to do an audio/MIDI production at the same time, however I prefer not to do this. Theoretically, if you set up rules, for the audio example the torrent client should experienced issues, not the audio production, but in reality we still have phases of the moon and nobody does know what secrets are caused by dark matter. Seriously, are there serious, legal torrents for something that is available by ftp/http/s too, so that we can do comparisons?
