Understanding the mule

[berg-man]

Hello,

I would just like to ask the average speed of a download in emule; I don’t have problem waiting, but I’d like to be sure I don’t do anything wrong. Since the last 15 hours, I have managed to download 2MB so, according to my calculations, with this pace my download (1.4GB) will take about 14 months, i.e. next year around July, if I keep my computer on till then non-stop.

I think then it would be reasonable to suspect that I am doing something terribly wrong, and ask for tips on improving the speed.

I would also like to know whether emule is generally regarded as user-friendly software. In my case, I think it might take some time to get the grasp of it.

Thank you in advance!
