quick question...
 
Hi all :)

Just a quick question, was wondering what the site was to download a torrent from to check if you're getting maximum speeds. I've seen it posted here before but forgot to bookmark, it was based in the UK and used for testing VM speeds.

Cheers :)

he bet me to it... although, best thing to do is do a traceroute on some ftp server, and take the shortest route. Gamefiles sometimes is one or two hops longer.

KFK, you need to remember that torrent sites source their stuff from other people's PCs, so you may not get maximum speeds due to issues at their end (and depending on their network links/limitations).
