They can have their throughput without running a denial of service on their net connection. If you assume that they'll DOS themselves for the fun of it anyway, then I can't help you.
- caf 14y agoFor a user that cares only about throughput and not about latency, it's not a DOS.
- paulsutter 14y agoBacking a queue up to seconds of depth doesn't increase throughput. Most of the bandwidth contention is at the edge, right at your DSL connection, so any battle among network connections is a battle among your own usage at any given moment. Separately, bittorrent is not a latency-sensitive app, it's throughput sensitive, and uTP was designed for bittorent.
