Dear gnutella network forumers,

How is everyone doing? I am R. G. H. Please to meet whoever I might get the chance to talk to in this thread.

I am a fairly new user to Gnutella. I have had the client for about a month now. I've been downloading lots of music and video clip files from it. However, I've noticed that there's been a gradual slowing down of the download speed as I've used it more and more. Is this normal with the client or am I doing something wrong? For reference, I have a tendency to leave my computer on (with a screen saver and monitor-sleep feature) for hours of a day or sometimes even for days. Does this affect Gnutella's performance?

Please let me know how I can fix this problem and how I can improve my speed. The sticky in this forum, sadly, seems to be catering to Limewire.

Thank you so much for any and all help that I may receive. Jolly good day. *hugs*
