Hi,
thanks for the job you are doing here with amule,I really believe that right now aMule is the best edonkey protocol client.
When i completely switched to linux it was quite hard to find a good client as emule,luckly I found a better non-monolithic one,here a small comparison :
- MlDonkey: in theory the best one, more protocol than "just edonkey"(they say it shoud be possible to download the same file from more than one of these protocol) born with a server/client architecture,lots of gui to choose from.In practice: tons of uploads but downloads are very bad.I couldn't figure out if it was a router related problem or it was me that wasn't able to configure the client properly.Lot's of people on the forums had the same issue
- eDonkey clc: it doesn't respect lugdunum policies ,you get banned easly from big servers like razorback.Aggressive but performance is good (if it lasts....)
- xMule: never tried it seriously
- eMule: IMHO the worst one,it just runs in windows and it's monolithic,for me = nightmare
- aMule: the last one i tried because few people on berlios forums ( mldonkey) wrote that it was unstable and it was used to crash often (something like every 24 hours).Bullshit.It never crashed.It runs smoothly on my debian (without X) system and the remote gui is really powrfull,it doesn't need a lot of interaction, i click on a ed2k link and my download starts.simple. I really got stoned when I checked out dowload speeds after a while.
Have a nice download
