>(poor name) Why do you think that? Deluge is a synonym for torrent.

  that's interesting. that word is so rarely used that i didn't make the connection. it's brilliant.

    Even more brilliant that any Russian speaker can realize exactly same without a dictionary, it is just a rare form of делить word which means "to share".

      that seems more like a coincidence. the original meaning of deluge/torrent has no relation to sharing if i understand it correctly. unless someones idea of sharing is burying you in stuff.
