Interesting, I can't really talk about heavy disk activity: With mldonkey it appears to be big files, and system may run out of memory to handle this? With xmule I see no such indication, I got just 2.5MB of an ISO. Is this a problem with all ed2k clients? Is bittorrent more stable protocol/implementation? Which client is recomendable?
