Like many people, I have twice as much download bandwidth as upload.  Due to 
this fact I always used to recommend that people make their seed available 
for twice as long as it took to download.  My worst experience was when I got 
to 99% downloaded then stuck there for more than 24-hours before I found a 
seen able to complete my download.
