I found bandwidth throttle settings at 0kbps for upload and download. I assume that's the default, and that it means no limits? 68.81.215.166 02:06, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

Yes, that's the default. Yes, it means no limits. But you're asking in the wrong place. This talk page is to comment on the main page, for example to suggest how to improve it, not to task for help. Use the forum for that. Nicolas (talk) 21:34, 1 April 2009 (UTC)
In this case, it was for both. I wanted to know for myself, but I thought that was very useful information to have in the (rather sparse) main page. Now that it's confirmed, I can go edit it in, so the next person isn't left wondering, too.68.81.215.166

[edit] Use at most CPU time

On a dualcore system, does the "use at most % CPU time" preference refer to CPU time on a single core? If I choose "use at most 50% of processors" and "use at most 100% of CPU time", will it only load one core? This could be more clearly defined on the help page. --88.113.9.13 06:14, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

[edit] defaults?
