In what scale is this speedup to be expected?

What is mldonkeys current strategy? Get the first chunk? Get the chunk
with the fewest sources?

So, if a file has 5 chunks, and 4 people already downloading 1 different
chunk, then mldonkey would report only 1 chunk as available to the net,
right?

Let's hope mldonkey (the coder) returns fast, so official developement
can start again.
