:I was watching a trace from a bearshare connection, and I realized queryhits
:are sent through udp, why not through tcp as usual with the rest of the
:messages? I'm a getting crazy? I'm sending my queryhits through tcp, could
:this be a reason for not being able to parse them through bearshare?

The purpose of receiving query hits via UDP is that the hits do not need
to be relayed by each Gnutella Ultranode until they reach you.  Instead,
they are delivered directly at your door.

This means a quicker delivery time and less bandwidth usage for the network.
