Come on, they all use the same network, it just depends on who you are uploading from.
Therefore it doesnt matter what client is downloading the file.

I agree that that the user (and his slots) you are downloading from has more to do with how quick a file gets downloaded than the network.

"it depends on the user" Well, in some cases the users Some clients support swarming some not. That could have an effect. Of course, just about all of them do support it now, so that means nothing. Though, some might be better than others at finding more sources..

I don´t think the poll was stupid...this thread, on the other hand, is kinda stupid.
Of course d/l speed depends a lot on your connection and that of the user your downloading from (and amount of users). But still, I verified that some Gnutella clients are faster than others, even though they´re on the same network (I´m talking about the ones that support swarming). For example, XoloX seemed faster than Shareaza...
