    A buddy was living with me for like two years or so, we had a lot of network issues, suddenly slowing down, not having nearly the speed we were supposed to,

    Not long before he moved out i saw his torrent stats, while staying with me he had downloaded about 100GB, and seeded around 700TB!

    This son of a gun had disabled any rate limit and been seeding at full capacity for two goddamn years, i haven’t had any network issues since

      Christ, I have it running 24/7 and I’m only at ~1.5TB of uploads. Tbf as pointed out elsewhere I’m “competing” with seedboxes so not hugely surprising.

      I don’t set a speed limit but I use wifi for seeding so I don’t get priority anyways.
