How are you able to control that?? bump --- End quote --- i dunno how its done, i never ran a site with the traffic and file transferring done. but all sites have to limit you some. or else they will not be able to upload to you at all when 5% of the users are eating 100% of the bandwidth. say you have a 12mbit connection /8bits = theoretically being able to download anything anywhere at 1.5 megabyte per second. that is extremely fast. but notice how you basically are never allowed that when your downloading a file. if all10k users are doing that speed, the site would just crash lol. this is why higher speed nets are good for multiple computers, and for multiple file downloading. it wont really (normally) let you download a single file faster from a single location. |

I once downloaded every document in WikiLeaks and it loaded at 1.2 Terabytes per second. Yet, it was still slow. |

(the site couldn't, or wouldn't want to pay for unnecessary usage of extra bandwidth) there is a world of difference between megabytes and megabits, and when they are used. kalph this discussion is about what sites logically would allow, not what possible technology is out there.... jesus christ, keep up. |
