A Simple Math and A Pure Waste of Bandwidth


So this is the statistic from one of the few private torrent trackers that I've joined. Since October 2005 and that was 4 years ago.

Since four years ago, I have downloaded 1.7 Terabytes (TB) from the site and uploaded 10.6TB which gives a ratio of 6.22.

If starting today, I just download the same amount of data and do not upload a single byte, I will take 20.9411765* years to even out the downloads to 10.6TB with a ratio of unity.

*((10.6-1.7)/1.7) x 4
(8.9/1.7) x 4
5.23529412 x 4

I should have donated the bandwidth to the needy children of Botswana. It means nothing. Just a battle of showing off who's having the longest dick.
