    it depends on how much seeders and peers there are in the torrent which u are downloading.....

    if it a very healthy torrent( lots of more seeders than the peers)...it wud take about 8-10 hours...
    but it cud take longer than that like 15-18 hours or maybe lesser than that like 6-8 hours too....
    it depends machan...

    to get a good downloading speed and download torrents fast, choose a healthy torrent and plus...VERY IMPORATANT.....change ur prefernces as mentiones in gomida's thread....

    if everythng is going well...u shud hav a download speed around 40-50 kbps.

    Yep :D.. depends on the number of seeds u get.. if you have lots of seeds then you'll get a >50kB/s download speed normally its around 7 hours..

    but if you do a non-stop downloading, (like let your computer download that and you go away) it would take nearly 5-6 Hours for 700MB :yes:

    BTW, Thanx for referring my thread ;) :D

    I'll give those meanings in simple language so any one could understand ;)

    Upload = Sending data to another computer
    Download = Recieving data from another computer
    Limit = The limit of speed for sending or recieving data that the torrent programe will used when downloading or uploading
    1kB/s = Lowest speed you can select
    Unlimited = Speed is not limited :P
    Tracker = the applet tracks and gives you the list of computers which have the selected torrent + which has the parts of the torrent available for download
    Update Tracker = Update the tracker and renew the list of computers, removing dead links (IPs), and adding new ones


    BTW, update tracker eka ekapaarata wadaa karaata awulak naa ;) :cool:

    What is a tracker?

    A BitTorrent tracker is a service on the internet that assists in the communication between BitTorrent clients. When you open a torrent file, your machine contacts the tracker and asks for a list of seeds and leechers to connect to.

    What is a private tracker?


    A private tracker is a tracker which requires registration at the tracker website (click on the tracker link in the red warning message on the general information page of the torrent) before you can use the torrent. This means that registering at Mininova won't help! Such trackers usually have a high amount of seeds, because users get banned if their ratio is too low. See for more information the Wikipedia entry regarding private trackers.
