Hehe thats a thread killer if ive ever seen one!

Torrents vary... massively! could have 100 peer's and still have a sucky donwload speed, it depends on what all those peers are doing. Crikey it could be 100 peers on Virgin who ar eall STM'd and their upload speed has just vanished!

Virgin dont traffic shape their torrent traffic, its only STM thats in place. Ubuntu with torrents is a good idea though, if your really into torrents then its worthwehile trying new things to see the difference. You would be surprised how much windows nukes your Torrent download speed!
