My upload passes download speed

[wehacker]

Hey guys, why am i having my torrents download at 200-kbps while having upload 2mbps? Is there any solution for that? In morning i was able to get 8,1mbps...

Torrents are simply a useless indicator of any kind of upload/download performance indicator.

What is that suppose to mean?

It means don't worry about what 'speed' you see in the torrent client.

Torrents are not like downloading something from a central server. You are actually getting little bits and pieces from other peoples hard drives. And they are getting bits and pieces from yours.

In the evening, you have a lot of competition for all those little bits and pieces. Hence stuff is slower coming in to your client.
In the morning, not so many other people. So you probably get a larger slice of the pie.

It means you are a giver, not a taker. 😀 Very generous.
