| Why do I never see as many seeds and leeches as there are? http://forums.degreez.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4694 |

I've always wondered this. Recently I've forwarded my ports so I download much quicker, but I've always wondered why when I join a torrent with 60 seeds I always end up seeing about 15~25. Is there a way to see everyone on the torrent and thus get maximum speed? |

the trackers work hard as it is.. now understand that not neccessarily will a seed give you better speed than a peer. if the seeds are only u/l at 13k/s each but the peers have cable or T1, i would rather see more peers... |

It possibly has to do with how clients discover each other (graphs and nodes). Bram mentioned that segmentation (splitting of graphs) is a big problem in his talk at Stanford recently. |

The tracker has all of this information, Azureus displays total peers and connected peers. |

Let's not forget that in larger swarms (anything over about 60 peers in size) it's not practical for your computer to connect to everyone (especially on 98/ME) |

That really depends on your connection and the speed of the peers. ie: slow torrents, the ones with only 1 seed and 20-500 peers, 60 might not be too much. Anyway, I really think it is more important to know if the data is out there, rather then available. |
