Search strategy & Explanations

[bangbang]

Hi

Appologies if this is already posted, I could not find and answer...

When I do a "search " and presented with 10 users having the file I need, how do I choose the best one? Based on which strategy?

What is the meaning of the fields Status/Server? If I have this result:
101 in queue
99 in queue
1 of 1 available
14 ot 20 available


What do these mean, and which one should I choose?

thanks!

choose the 1 of 1 or the 14 of 20

See which one starts and delete the other one. If both start, see which source has more speed.

The status basicially tells if the person has open slots or not
101 in queue means that there are 101 people wanting a file from that source and are in queue for that file.
Obviously, the source with the least queue is the file to go for. But it's better to downlaod files which have more sources rather than open slots as finding the source again can be a big pain sometimes

the "available files on top" button can be useful here.. as it sorts by these sort of criteria for you
