how do “Bigtime” uploaders re-up?
November 2nd, 2020
Doubt it tbh, they probably just have a fast upload speed. i dont think a software can increase your actual upload speed that you get with your ISP.
When I was an uploader, it didn’t take me 1/2 hr to upload 1 file lol…. I could upload a 700MB film in literally seconds.
I had FIU, on a remote desktop which had a 10 Gbit port. Most uploaders stick with 1 Gbit… But I had 10, as I was uploading new releases to 10+ hosts at a time. Quite a time saver.
On average, I was probably posting 50 new releases… in about 30 minutes.
Main secret is to get an RDP with a very fast connection.
Of course there are other ways, that’s just the way I was doing it back in the day.
Depending on the actual host that you are uploading to, you will have to experiment to see which was is faster for uploading. FTP or FIU. Sometimes one is faster than the other.
If your using FIU, make sure to increase the buffer.
I upload to one host only one time. These links are remote uploaded into the 3 file host I use to post the links.
I dont use or pay for a third party connection, just off my home line.
I am not a “big time uploader” as I only do it one time

Ash, could you explain a “10Gbit port”?
a 10Gbit connection will cost you hell. Do what suggested. I’d like to add something to that, keep one host as a backup. I mean don’t post those links anywhere. When some link gets down, you may remote upload from your backup again quickly.
Reupping is pretty much an automated thing. FTP server with original files; script to check existing links – if dead, ftp over to the host automatically – script sends note to email with notification.
Uploading via this means makes upload time a non-issue (well ok, it does matter but bodies aren’t sitting at a desk clicking buttons). Of course the bandwidth of your servers is a huge factor.
Or maybe put another way, if you haven’t spent $ on or have access to something more than “home internet options” mass uploading will be painfully slow.
You don’t need a 10Gbit connection, but you need at least a 100Mbps connection, and not download, upload! I only do uploading via my server. Not many hosts support remote uploads unless your paying. And you can just queue your uploads on the server, then check back later.
Uploading on a home connection is a waste of time. Most residential broadband is designed for the end user, who only downloads. While most home connections have somewhat good download speeds, the upload speeds usually crawl. A typical home download speed is between about 3 Mbits and 30 Mbits, while the typical upload speed is between about 0.5 Mbits and 5 Mbits.
