A što se tiče uploada, on ne bi smio utjecati na brzinu DLa (barem meni to ne igra ulogu), jedino ako ti je bed za promet to ograniči, ali ne preporučujem da ograničiš na manje od 5 KB/s jer onda torrent client (kako koji) ograniči i brzinu downloada.
Na žalost za korisnike ADSLa upravo je suprotno... zbog principa rada torrent protokola brzina uploada direktno je vezana za brzinu downloada. Pojednostavljeno kad skidaš file preko torrenta u stvari skidaš puno malih paketa od raznih korisnika ali istovremeno i šalješ pakete koje već imaš ostalim korisnicima. E sad da bi mogao skidati pakete moraš istovremeno slati zahtjeve za te pakete ali ako je cijeli upload zauzet slanjem tvojih paketa ostalim korisnicima ne može to raditi dovoljno brzo što onda smanjuje i brzinu skidanja. Upravo zato treba OBAVEZNO ograničiti brzinu uploada na 80% kapaciteta linije (a ako usput i surfaš onda i manje) da bi ostalo dovoljno mjesta za slanje zahtjeva (i za surfanje ili skidanje maila...)
µTorrent ima ugrađen dobar speed guide sa kojim se može testirati brzina veze i okvirno podesiti upload limit.
Drugo rješenje je korištenje nekog od 'traffic shaping' programa (npr. Cfosspeed) koji vrše automatsku prioritizaciju paketa tako da ne dolazi do zagušenja veze bez ograničavanja uploada.

The Geek Wants OUT
by Ernest Cline


At first glance
I probably appear to be a somewhat ordinary,
somewhat average looking fellow.
Calm, harmless, at ease.

But this is by design.
You see, it is through decades of research and rigorous training that I have crafted this façade of normalcy.

And now, through intense concentration,
I am able to function in a social setting.
I can speak at length with educated people about
pertinent matters of public importance,
such as literature,
or the current political climate in Europe.

I am capable of conversing with you
without ever revealing that just underneath the surface
of this manufactured veneer
there hides an altogether different person.
A monster, some might say.
My alter-ego.
He is the opposite of the image I project.
He is the antithesis of Cool.
He is the LAST person you want to get trapped in a conversation with.

He is The Geek.
The obsessive science fiction movie watching,
comic book collecting,
Monty Python dialogue memorizing,
Dungeons and Dragons playing GEEK
that I struggle daily to keep hidden from the world.

But The Geek Wants Out.

He want to talk to you.
He wants to give you his doctoral dissertation on why
The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension
is the greatest fucking film of all time!

He wants to bitch slap you because
you’ve never seen Big Trouble in Little China.
What? Have you been living in a fucking cave?!

He wants to kick your ass in Star Wars Trivial Pursuit.
And he will.
Because he’s a fucking Geek.

And he wants his toys.
He wants the complete set
in mint condition,
still in the box.
He wants every item on the planet that is even remotely related to Ultraman.
Because Ultraman is Airwolf!

He could give a squirt of piss
about sports or politics or rhetoric.
Such things are of no consequence to him.
What matters is the release date of the next Lord of the Rings movie!

You see, The Geek can’t wait.
The Geek has no patience.
He wants what he wants when he wants it.
And all he wants is stupid shit!

He wants his own Tardis.
He wants his own light saber.
He wants to buy a DeLorean and he wants to drive it 88 miles per hour.

He wants movies.
He wants to see the Director’s Cut.
He wants the impossible to find Japanese bootleg with
6 minutes of never-before-seen footage.

He wants to watch Blade Runner. Again.
He wants to watch Brazil. Again.
He wants to watch A Clockwork Orange.
Again and Again!

But I deprive him of these things, as best I can,
until I can no longer ignore his voice
screaming in my head.

I am Jekyl. He is Hyde.
I am Bruce Banner. He is the Hulk.
Especially the Hulk from issues #272 to #378.

But no longer!
I am putting a stop to all this nerdy shit right now!
I’m an adult, for Christ’s sake!
And this body isn’t big enough for the both of us.
One of us has to go, and it’s gonna be him.
I banishing the Geek forever to the Phantom Zone,
just like in Superman II !
Because, in the end –
there can be only one.
