Remember to update when you support server side unrar.

Interested in your service but no unrar is a letdown.

Whatever makes you happy.

Anyways, from my experience of the torrentflux services around here is that, 1 download at one time, 8 - 10 connections tops. Of course your service is otherwise. However, even if I can download more file at one time, my speed is limited not by the amount of files i can download at one time but rather by the connection speed. Most of the time I get full speed, when my housemate is not downloading his(more on that later)and with the queuing systems of most download manager, the process is seamless.

My reason for asking server side unrar is that I share my connection. I can't afford to get my own line, and that my housemate uses xunlei. Due to the fact that his files are chinese sources, mine is otherwise, and the nature of xunlei, he gets more speed of the line. Now here's the problem, downloading a bunch of rar files is a pain in the behind for me, due to Xunlei flooding the line, I have trouble making connections to the FTP server. With the huge amount of small .rar files, I spend most of the time waiting for the files to make connection. With an unrared file, Because I only start the download once, my speed is better.

If I had the choice, I wouldn't even bother to unrar them. Unpacking the files would waste server space, and since these packages are mostly based on the space you pay, they are precious. I'd prefer to get my files faster, and by doing so, I can clear them faster. Of course, with that pea sized brain of yours, you wouldn't have think that some people need to unrar because they have a good reason to do it. Before you call people stupid/ignorant, you'd have to know the reason for them doing things that you deemed being stupid. You're entitled to your opinion and I respect that. But with that kind of a language/attitude, good luck to offering services to people man.

I'm glad that you cleared things up.
I did not use Xunlei, i use utorrent, my housemate using it, causing my downloads to slow.
Well, as to the time it takes to download, I get same speed on rar files and on the big files. No speed difference. And since rar is less beneficial, i choose the bigger file. As to the downsides of downloading larger files, now you open my mind. If you don't wish to offer server side unrar, it's totally up to you. But you can limit like 1 file each time. Of course this is hard to monitor, but I meant is as a suggestion.

Agreed.

However, like i pointed out earlier, from the service I'm using now, I get full speed downloading from the FTP server with 1 FTP account, at 8 connections. The reason I'm thinking of switching is that their upload speed turtle speed. Not that I want to get those RM50 seedboxes with high upload speeds anyways.

Tell me when you are offering server side unrar.

Thanks.

@wonslung
Thank you for opening up my mind. regarding that traffic shaping thing. I've been on Tomato for the past year. The stuff works, but it can only do so much.



Am considering Ultraflux since other that the .rar issue, your prices are good and the upload speed is good as well.
Question: 1st page it says 9 FTP connections, does it mean I can run 9 FTP file downloads at the same time? Thank you.

Why is it that when I try to turn 2 files at one time, the 2nd file wouldn't start. It just says I can have maximum of 9 connections

Your new server is same location with your current server location?

I'm on 4MBps line and the stupid routing has resulted in an average of 80 - 100kbps at night. Don't know whether i should renew when the thing expires.

Great stuff
Almost maxed out the server download bandwidth

Download at 450kbps from 218.111 4mbps

No regrets buying quarterly package

btw safar, what is connection limit for http download?
