Welllll, I have just been uploading quite happily for the last couple of hours and hit about 1.5gb, completely forgetting about stm because i have never uploaded this much before and all of a sudden my upload speed dropped from 500k/sec (which is what i capped it at) and shot down to 6k/sec and now it won't go above 20. I checked on the VM site and it says that when stm kicks in (between 1500 -2000 and it is now 2100) your speed is reduced by 65% but that is still ~200k/sec. I reacon they are trying to pull a fast one.
