Thanks for that feedback, I’ve done my best to make it represent actual network activity, so it’s good to hear that it matches your experience quite well.

And as I expected you would almost certainly see almost no advantage of higher upload speed. It rarely peaks over 30mbps.

If you want to see how much you could possibly gain you can use the success rate script here.

The updated script can be found here (For linux, windows version below) The new output has a lot more info and looks like this Please note this screenshot was made on a log from mostly the version prior to the update.

For now you should ignore the upload numbers though as there is a loggin issue that impacts the success rates. But since you’re worried about YOUR upload speed, the success rates for download are the relevant ones. (Upload/download terminology in Storj is always from the perspective of the customer, so a customer download uses your upload)  
Here’s my result.

If you’re close to 100% there is nothing left to gain from better upload speed.
