Re: Hotfile IS throttled! said by the cerberus:fine, if that really is true, then the keyword is 60-70kb/s. if you can get over 60kb/s its not the bell throttle. 70kb/s is over that. Okay, so let's just have some fun with this one...
If you have ever downloaded or transferred a file before, you'd notice that those speed/time estimates are WAY off.
If you'll look at the beginning of the video, there are already 6.105 megabytes downloaded. By 1:39 in the movie when the speed spikes up, there are 11.458 megabytes downloaded.
Assume:
Video represents realtime.
To calculate the average speed, you can say that you've got:
11.458MB minus 6.105MB in 99 seconds, or ~55kB/s.
Thus, you see that this was indeed consistent with Bhell's 512Kb throttle. |
