Rep Power: 2 | Hi, Seeders are someone who will be having the complete file ie 100% more the seeders the higher is the availabilty of the file and so the speed. leechers are someone who will only download the file but will not allow to upload the same.Peers are the one who are similar to you who will be doing both downloading and uploading as well...different peers will be having different parts of the file...you will also get the data from them. Your torrent speed depends on the number of seeders... |

| Platinum Member  | speed also depends on how seeders are seeding.e.g.10 seeders seeding at a rate of 10KBps each will be slower than 2 seeders seeding at 100KBps each.generally though you should try those torrents which have more no. of seeders or about same no.of seeders & peers. |

Rep Power: 2 | Well you've definitely got the right plan for downloading torrents. I was using Bit Comet for a long time but finally changed to Utorrent which is preferred in a number of forums and sites .. its light and resource friendly. I had 500 C + but changed to the 750 UL + plan cause I din;t have to schedule my DLs etc. Its my experience that DL speeds depend on 1. Obviously BSNL 2. No. of seeders and leechers 3. Site(s) i.e whether it is a private tracker or public tracker. Private trackers (usually members only sites) generally give better speeds. 4. Configuration .. which I have no clue about ... |

The point is one should not really bother about that. Start the torrent and if you are not getting enough seeds try an alternate tracker. The thumb rule is:

 Probably just for our mental satisfaction. Even if they do work I think that they'll probably be frowned upon by the torrents community in general .. as the general idea is to 'spread the love' .. he he | |
