There is no such thing as a 'fastest' File-Sharing application. All things equal, your effective speed is dependent on the peer(s) you are connected to. For example, userB's download from userA is the same or lower than userA's upload speed. Most apps allow for bandwidth-throttling, where you can set the upper limits for your upstream and downstream speeds, which is helpful on a shared network with a limited Internet connection speed, which seems to be about everything but fiber and OOL these days :) and some also offer a multi-point downloading ability, which also means you could be used as a multi-point upload; in either case the idea is to get an equal percentage or more of the data from however many points there are.
