So basically, given Gnucleus' superior ability to hold an ultrapeer connection compared to other client software, if it altered 1) the processing of greedy queries and 2) user alterable parameters for ultrapeers (on Limewire, you check a box or no. There is nothing more to set), then it would make a fine ultrapeer?
I don't think the ability to hold a connection, that is flooding the network can be called feature.

As for Gnucleus making a fine ultrapeer, - I really can't tell you, since there are far too few gnucleus ultrapeers to be of much significance for the overall performance. They are so tightly linked to the LimeWire ultrapeers with a ratio of about 1 Gnucleus ultrapeer for every 10 LimeWire ultrapeers, so it's almost impossible to notice any difference for the overall performance.
