Man, you tell me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm announcing... I am announcing !
Listen....
Yesterday... only for about 14 hrs continuous... I did some tests on an ace machine with an ace connect, OK ?
I tried with BearShare 5.2.5.3.... and Aaron Walkhouse's secret X-Ingredient absopositoooootly ULTIMATE BearShare Beta version, a basic LW freebie download version and (er) a , um.... well, an LW 4.13 Pro thingie...
Gotta say it... I did all I know to do... The BS stuff beat the stuffings out of LW (both) -
I am not really that prejudiced... (You other guys shut up !!!!)
Search returns were abysmal with LW...
Yet, same searches w/BS versions (both) involved a majority of LW responders !
And....
AND
To prove that it had zip-all to do with my ISP at the time, I D/Led (legally !) X-Plane, which is in excess of 1 Gig, in 1 hour and 32 mins.
At the SAME TIME as my tests !
(Machine was connected to an ADSL so-called 1Mbps down and 320Kbps up with a typical ping rate and the usual minimum, with a strong tailwind- 15% reduction of any of these fantasy marketing figures, OK ?)
Look... Me been around the p2p stuff for a while and I do like the LW people and I understand the popularity of the app....
BUT,
BUT
But, lately there have been HUGE probs for HUGE numbers of users with the latest versions of LW...
Obviously this subject, and perhaps this 'outrageous' post here, will result in even more posts re: the current probs-
This is not a new situation.... WOW, in the past (years ago) there were things done by both LW and BS that Really pissed-off MANY people !!!
Prob is... er... we don't got Vinnie (BS-FreePeers) to kick around anymore...
(not entirely true as he and the gang ARE TRACEABLE, heh, heh !)
Me shut up now and wait for the deluge...
Again, thanks for your stuff here !
