Re: 97.7k chunk size

This is also used in BearShare and is called 'Partial Content'. The advantages of this are that the chunks are smaller for the client and the download will complete faster. Also, this rotates the connections of Downloads. Say you're downloading a file that has 100 sources, your client may only be able to download from 16 sources at a time. What this does is allow the client to rotate hosts that it is downloading from. Hopefully this isn't too wordy!
