![]() The operative word "if" is the key here. One of limewires greatest attrations was the ability to find the "not so popular" items that are out there. Yea the "wishlist" did this to some degree but I usually kept the setting on 3 connections unless I was trying to find something that was indeed hard to find. I found that I had a higher chance of finding it with 6 connections and letting it sit for 30 minutes so that the number of files it can see goes up. This greatly increased the possibility of find the "rare ones". I hear you on the connection improvement but tests says otherwise. One machine at 3 connections only show on average ~800M of files where as the earlier version running at the same time on a different machine with 6 connections found 2.4G of files. |
