Let’s talk today how to increase the download and upload speed at torrent clients. A lot of torrent networks users ask themselves this question. There is a plenty of different ways to solve this problem starting with the correct configuration of the torrent client itself and finishing with the configurations of the operating system. I will say straight away that this article is the first of three part kind of useful course on how to speed up your torrent client in the end and get the highest results and ratings in torrent networks. So, the first part is devoted to how to increase the download speed at torrents through the operating system configuration and the usage of foreign software.

Torrent trackers have become a usual part of the network for the most of network users long ago. So much usual, that even necessary to some degree. That is why the moment these trackers are nearly starting to be pressed by the law-enforcement agencies, all the community of torrent-networks lovers all at once stand ups for them with all forms of indignation and resentment. And it is clear why. The only thing that isn’t so clear is who is right. Whether it is the users who are under the threat of losing such an accustomed and sweetheart freebie or ‘offended by trackers’ actions’ rights possessors and evil public prosecutor's office standing for keeping author's rights and standing by laws. And this question isn’t so easy as even the European legal law can not clarify it from the juridical point of view.

What should this kind of program have to become recognizable in the network? Not as much as you may think – it only has to be really useful, up-to-date, easy to use and don’t eat a lot of system resources. Oh, almost forgot. It’s really better to be free. uTorrent satisfies all the mentioned parameters that’s why I chose it to be the hero of our overview.

I want to say right away that I will write not about ‘which tracker is better’ in this publication, but about all the trackers, where it is better to download at fast speed without thinking about the personal rating at the tracker.
There is a huge variety of torrent trackers which mainly offer a user to get registered and to start participating in this project today. It’s all simple: you gain your personal rating by uploading files and so on. So how to choose a torrent tracker?

Millions (yes, really millions) of people all over the world are using this Bram Cohen’s creation. Torrent BitTorrent totally meets all the requirements for p2p (Peer-to-peer) networks: download is made in several streams at once, file is divided into a huge number of small parts – pieces; not only complete, but not completely downloaded (being still downloaded) files are allowed to upload.
