- na85 10y agoOf course that works but why isn't the protocol robust enough to do this automatically?
- j3097736 10y agoBecause bittorrent is designed to be easy to implement to favour adoption, they could have created a more performant DHT and added something like eMule's automatic upload speed sense but that would have been more complex.
