Bit Torrent Problem

[TheSource]

I told ABC to restrict its upload speed to a certain number but the stupid thing is uploading at higher than that. What gives?

Are you sure that both numbers use the same units...ie, Kilobits per second (Kbps) vs. Kilobytes per second (KB/s)?

Realize that both are not the same, as a speed of 80 Kilobits per second is equal to 10 Kilobytes per second.

So if you specify a max upload speed of 40 KB/s, then it's possible that ABC is reporting the upload speed in Kbps.

Just a thought.

its saying kB/s
