Getting Genistos speedrun of smb2 right now, but the torrent is only running at 1 kB per second. This could be right about anything, but initial seeding can be improved by using a technique from Shad0w's experimental BT client called Super-Seed. Basically it disallows a client from getting a packet that someone else already has in order to get more seeds running quickly If you could get this running, the download times would increase greatly. more info: http://bittornado.com/docs/superseed.txt

How do I setup superseeding in btlaunchmany / btlaunchmanycurses? I'm using that everywhere.

Looks like it's only to be used in initial seeding. I do that now and it seems quite effective.
