Why not look into using Web/HTTP seeding rather than running a client
for the initial seed? The only downsides that I know of so far:
1) Not supported in rtorrent
2) Transmission doesn't apply any bandwidth limits to Web/HTTP seeds
Following up late on this, sorry.
The seed is less of an issue than the tracker. Is there a solution to
that?
