[Mldonkey-users] client_stats: mldonkey asks a lot, emule seems to be more efficient

[Carsten Aulbert]

Hi all, sorry if this was already discussed, but I'm a bit puzzled by 
this (pango-patched mld yesterday):

It seems that mldonkey is more "sociable" (90% of all file requests) but 
emule seems more efficient in 'getting' through.

is this related to my special layout (mld runs on a machine with private 
ip (172.16.x.x) and is limited by max_connections 125 and max_upload 
(otherwise the computer will stall after some time with too much hard 
drive action))?

Cheers
Carsten
