Shareaza is getting 580-800 Kbps...
 
:eek:

Shareaza is giving me 580-800 Kbitps. 395MBybes 9-15 sources.

395 Megs in about two hours.

I've never seen transfers this fast.

I must admit, I was skeptical at first, and the thing wouldn't connect for a while, but now... this blows everything else away.

Damn.

It's connected to bearshare, limewire, shareaza, everything.

Bearshare seems to connect mostly to bearshare only.

If this continues, I hope Bearshare, Limewire implement Gnutella2 also.

It's not fast because it's using "Gnutella2"; it's fast for other reasons.

gnutella / gnutella2 standards fragment?
 
hmm really?

i did some searching/reading for gnutella2, it seems shareaza just went ahead and implemented it without discussing it with the rest of the gnutella community.

is they going to start some breakdown of standards, along the lines of html..?

although it seems to interoperate very nicely with many other gnutella clients, i'm uploading and downloading from them just fine.

I tried Shareaza for the first time and I also noticed this....then i realized downloading 300 kb/s i was gettin a 10 meg file just as fast as donwloading 15 kb/s on limewire and Kazaa.:p

55k/sec=395MB in 2 hours
Good but not THAT fast.

LW has given me dl speed of 200-240 kb/s: 700 MB in 1 hour from one source. What do I know? I might have a faster connection than you.

Alright well the reason why it appears to go so fast is because it is set to display download speeds in bits per second, not Bytes per second like most are used to seeing on the internet. There are 8 bits in every byte, so 300kb/s is really 37.5kB/s. You can change how it shows this representation in one fo the settings.

I am a shareaza user, havent really used much else since I found shareaza. IMHO it is the best client out there right now, Mike did an excellent job on the g2 protocol. I think he did sort of go behind the back of the gdf to get his protocol out, but I also think it was necessary. Gnutella seems to be advancing faster and faster since Mike released g2, this appears to have been a way to push g1 t some changes. I think that sometime in the future the g1 and g2 networks will merge to once again form a single gnutella. I encourage everyone to try it for themselves and see what they think. I know from my personal experience it is the best thing I have used, and the icing on the cake is that there is absolutely no spy/adware that comes with it. It is a clean program that will not bog your computer down with all that ad/spyware crap.

help
 
s'up guys. being very new to shareazaI am unfimiliar with the way it works and I need some help. I am downloading (edited) and it's going decent but then I check out the uploads amd this guy is blazing at 110 kb/s (it is actually 110 cause I converted it from bytes). I want the most bandwidth I can get, can anyone help me change my settings for optimal download?

As long as they are not using 100% of the upstream bandwith, uploads do not affect downloads seriously.
