> Part of the reason bit torrent works really well is that the file is downloaded in random order. That's basically true for one client (transmission) - who specifically refuses to allow linear ordering. Most clients implement this. To enable it, its about a 3 sloc change. I hate clients that dont work for the user. | ||||||||

Transmission does allow you to set a particular file (let's say the first file in a series) as 'high priority' though so it's not like they don't allow any change to the behavior | ||||||||
