Note:

Acquisition and AcqLite are only GUI projects for the LimeWire core. Both authors neither work on Gnutella nor contribute to the LimeWire Open Source project. If Acquisition or AcqLite downloads faster it is only luck (or an illusion).

And AcqLite is an Acquisition clone!

The same is true for Poisoned which is only a User Interface for giFT. So if you see better downloads with Poisoned you should give your kudos to the giFT developers!

Morgwen, I sense that while you and I are enjoying chatting here, rubaiyat is furiously hammering out another reply...

He makes me think of yeast... You know, what you put in bread to make it 'rise'.

I am going to go bake some bread !!!!

BRB !

Good point, also !!!! It only ADDS to the reduction of available bandwidth devoted to actual transfers.

And, rkapsi.... Tell it like it is, man !!!!
Thanks.;)

And now, bread...

BUT I AM WATCHING YOU, rubaiyat !!!

(Hey, Morgwen, understand now why I said, Constant Monitoring ???
Pity bachmann does not understand !)

Me? :confused:

I confirmed our rules and that I moved the post. After this rubaiyat continued the discussion... my fault was that I replied.

I need holidays. :)

I am out now. :p

No, Morgwen... rubaiyat makes me think of yeast... More time = More air.

:p

Post-Count Boogie !
 
Gee, rubaiyat, I keep forgetting to thank you...

As a moderator, the 'post-count' does not normally increase very much as the 'edits' within posts don't count.

You are doing marvels for my post-count... Thanks ! :rolleyes:

You weren't using LimeWire very much or you have to be very stupid. Maybe LimeWire's GUI is too complex for you.

Let's get down to what remains a constant. The hardware, network and OS. Poisoned performs substantially better than LimeWire for me and others but you don't want me to say so. even though Poisoned is a Gnutella client too.
Poisoned is a GUI for GiFT. GiFT has a Gnutella plugin. I have my doubts that it were performing so much better since I have been using GiFT for quite a while and it didn't blow my mind.
Since the 'felt' performance is not always an indicator for the actual performance I take the liberty of assuming that you don't have the slightest idea what you're talking about.

LimeWire version 3.9.1 Pro
Java version 1.4.1_01 from Apple Computer, Inc.
Mac OS X v. 10.2.8 on ppc
Free/total memory: 12940792/44482560

(btw Ursula, it's considered good form to run Virex to avoid sharing infected files as a coutesy to the Windows users)

As far as LW dl's are concerned--seems fine to me. I just searched for the names posted earlier, and within 5 minutes had plenty of downloads which I'm about to delete. The speeds look good.

just an update

added the average download speeds

Ah ha !

Looks like dear rubaiyat has a personal problem with HIS set up but prefers to blame LimeWire and Gnutella Network !

Well, we can all live in hope that he'll soon come to his senses and try to do something to clean up HIS system.

And, stief, that is very good news that you have already deleted those files you downloaded as an experiment only... Or, someone would need to delete your posts above. Excellent example of resposibility in not retaining and/or sharing copyrighted material !
