There has been some silliness behind the scenes over this thread. Members are reminded not to get personal with their comments.

As for the crux of this thread, please remember that traffic shaping may not be the only reason for poor download speeds. P2P depends heavily onthe capacity of bandwidth allocated by the uploading servers. If that bandwidth is low - and most uploaders will throttle their speeds quite heavily so as not to saturate their connections, downloads will take time, especially for the GB sized files. Days would not be uncommon.
