Also A little bit of memory for each source you download form must be kept. eMule does this efficiently, but still there is an upper limit of the amount of sources you can keep track of. Without global hardlimit the limit of sources is defined per file. With global hardlimit a total limit of number of sources is set instead per file. | ||
This way you don't have to pause files to download a lot of files, you will just get less sources per files. This way rare files are started sooner, but well distributed files might take a bit longer to download. Also it might help stability of your download. | This way you don't have to pause files to download a lot of files, you will just get less sources per files.

In the network wizard where you set your upload/download speed a value for the global hard limit is initialized based on your upload speed. Don't set values below 1000, it is not tuned for this. A value of 4000-5000 will fit many people. Do not set a very high value. | In the network wizard where you set your upload/download speed a value for the global hard limit is initialized based on your upload speed.
