[bug #19520] The download 'rate' or speed for a given file as displayed by the html display is completely inaccurate

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #19520 (project mldonkey):

"Is there any reason this could not be set as 100 as the default ?"

No, check patch #5853 for an updated default.

"In your opinion, do you think the way the rates are computed could be
improved ?"

Yes, but on my to-do list GUI stuff has lower priority.

For example, the DL speed code still shows data transfered when
the connection to the other client is already closed. It takes
about 10s for the code to notice that the connection was closed.

You can easily verify this by comparing HTML, downloaders with
the GUI display of downloading files. Sometimes files show
data transfered when HTML, downloaders already does not show
the file anymore. I think this is because of higher
download_sample_size, the time used to collect DL speed values
is now longer and data is considered which was received from
already disconnected clients.
