said by TypeS:You only download from seeds , not upload. Peers are the ones you upload to while downloading to, or just upload to while seeding a torrent.
But likewise, I have not upgraded from version 2.2.1 either and will never unless trackers ban that version (like most did to 1.6).
I was talking about the upload transport overhead, it would be greater with more connections (seeds or peers).
too bad 2.2.1 doesn't have the stream feature
