Comments

A large file and a low throughput: It is expected that a full copy of this file will have been dumped into the swarm by 8h00 PM UCT (GMT). I will then have pumped 110 ~ 120 % of the file's weight. A nice wavefront is taking shape as I write this.

The bittorrent protocol is robust, resumable and fair, thus well adapted for this kind of sharing. The reasons I don't use initial seeding - super seeding - are mostly technical... Psychological factors have also been considered. ;-) No seedbox either. We do it the old-fashioned way. Thank you for your patience.
