    Default Torrent Speeds

    Genuine question, what is the fastest you tend to get for torrent downloads? Obviously the number of seeds, leechers and time of day impacts it - just wondering when you get a decent torrent how fast they are?

    Only asking as for literally the first time ever I am getting 1.0MB/s consistently for something I am downloading at the moment. Literally the first time ever.

    Normally get closer to 700 (KB/s) tops

    Ouch - I generally get a bit more than that (unless downloading a lot at once).

    Just remember I did change a few settings last night, which may be helping it (after trying to fix a family members laptop via teamviewer) hmm

    My ":S" wasn't mean to show disbelief, more outrage that I can't get anywhere near that haha
