 The argument is that a peer that does segmented downloads occupies more free peers at the same time - making less available for everyone else. I don't think this holds water though, since it can get the file in less time, it all evens out in the end. Occupying one peer for one full hour is no better or worse than occupying four for fifteen minutes.  |
