totaly agree! :-)

When you think about the huge amount of modem users, the benefit from swarming would be big for the network. When thinking about an intelligent swarming the benfit could be even more. A intelligent swarming can look like this: a) use a minimum bandwith while the user is downloading itself, use a higher bandwith automatically when the user has finished downloads and stays online. b) optional run the Gnutella client allways in background and automatically share with a minimum bandwith when the user is online, e.g. while he surfs the web.
