Here are some interesting figures from about five minutes ago.

Location: UWP Wellesley South
Speed: about 90 kb/s
Distance: Across campus and more
Downloading: FFVII Advent Children, approx. 700 MB

Location: V1 N6
Speed: About 3 kb/s
Distance: A few buildings over
Downloading: the guy’s filelist, approx. 2 MB

Location: UWP Beck Hall
Speed: About 50 kb/s
Distance: Across campus and more
Downloading: Some BoA album that I ended up cancelling, approx 60 MB

Location: MKV
Speed: about 10 kb/s
Distance: A hell of a lot closer than UWP, slightly further than V1 North
Downloading: a filelist

Conclusion: Resnet doesn’t make sense. It is still better than getting 2 kb/s from everyone though, and I don’t mind since everyone that has everything is at UWP anyway.
