[volunteergrid2-l] adding files to the grid

Steve, I also upgraded to version 1.8.2.  I notice that your response time
is now less than a second, so that is a good thing.  I'm still getting
around 30KBps for upload speeds for each file, which is way to slow.  I
still haven't figured out a way to see the upload speed for each node for a
regular sized file (> 1 MB).

Does anyone know where I can find this information? (zooko, do you know)?


Thinking about this, maybe I can find a unix tool that will tell me the open
sockets and how much bandwidth each is taking at any given time..   Will let
you all know the tool, and how it works, once I find it.

After I figure this out, I think about creating  a page on our wiki that
describes some of the things that can be done to figure out bottlenecks,
such as the one I'm trying to diagnosis..

Not sure whether or not this was helpful (probably not), but I upgraded 
rhp997 to 1.8.2.  I checked the shares directory and I show several new 
files (timestamped > 4:20pm today)...someone appears to be adding shares?
