I live in the most 'bandwidth challenged' part of the most 'bandwidth challenged' so-called develped country. the main isp's offer low upload speeds, and the faster isp's are way too expensive. Closer peers does not equal faster download speeds unless they have high upload speeds. I often check to see which peers upload fastest and it is usually some swedish or other european, japanese, canadian or FIOS (verizon) IP address. I got 480KB/s from a bredbandsbolaget peer before. I'm in the southeast U.S. and i hate seeing *.bellsouth.net, *.ga.comcast.net or anything else nearby in my peers list. give me some peers across the pond with +200KB/s uploads please. this also appears to go against the BT protocol rules. sounds like another gnutella2 to me, a swarm within a swarm that connects first to all the 25KB/s (divided by 3 upload slots) peers nearby before finally reaching out to the high capacity peers in other countries. NO THANKS! I can see the benefit for ISP’s like lower network transport costs. but…

Remember it is a language accepted amongst a multitude of operating systems - it isn't optimized for the sake of just one, mind you. As for the programmers, my hearty opinion is that those who commit themselves to this language simply adapt to and overlook the issue from a technical standpoint. The only ones here I find ignorant are the ones who decided to avoid Java like the plague. Yes, Java is generally a sluggish language, but it sure as hell doesn’t mean it is the worst.

No, thanks." You seems like kids, "My toy car is better than yours". Anyway, back on topic, i have uninnstalled Ono, because, i dont like processes doing what they like, not even showing it to me, i started to see the pings and tracerts like you said, seen that they came with azureus (Thanks to sysinternals process explorer, win task manager is cr*p) and then, came to this page, maybe in my linux installation, this wont bother too much, but in win, im paranoic, i dont want self run process that i cant kill, so, ill not use anymore, but, i really didnt see any change with it, im in latin america, with a 1mbps connection, and i had always maxed my connection with azureus, rightly configured, obviously. Thats the end of my review.

Thats plain rude by the implementors. Unfortunately I'm stuck with it because utorrent (which is really great) doesn't work very well with wine. :-( Any other client in the league of azureus and uTorrent I should try, which also works in linux?

If you only got 7-10Kb/s while using Azureus it's because you didn't configure it correctly. I am on a 20Mbps connection and regularly max out my connection at 2.5 MB/s 85 Kb/s for a 1 Mbps connection is poor.

Comparing to other lightweight P2P clients, Azureus' performance is definately disappointing. If you don't believe me, try it yourselves. I am currently using BitTorrent Official V6 on 1M bandwith, I am getting 85kBs (680kbs) at peak, isn't that fast? When I was using Azureus, I had only 7-10kBs. I doubt this Ono could speed it up that much. I was once a Azureus user. Comparing to other lightweight P2P clients, Azureus’ performance is definately disappointing.

It's really quite funny. Of course anyone who has to use a java app like eclipse or azureus is not going to believe them. They'll believe their own eyes. All the JIT magic and advanced compilers might help on a numerical benchmark but once it comes to actually interfacing with the system you find the standard libraries impose all kinds of overhead before you can actually get anything done. Nonetheless I use azureus, it's dog slow on my dual-core 2Ghz machine which is pretty sad but what can you do? Oh, and Java fans have been saying “Java’s not slow any more” for nearly 10 years now.

Some peers will be slower than others but that should be overcome by increasing the number of peers until you saturate your link. Any bias in the choice of peers is just going to make it harder for the networks that are being shunned to find peers and they're the ones which will need the largest number of peers.

Since clients can only handle so many concurrent peers and this plugin opts to only use local peers, won't geographically distant peers speeds just get worse not better?
