[TxMt] YummyFTP AutoRoute?

[Developer Relations]

Fred, I have plenty of customers who love the speed benefits of YFTP  
over Transmit or any other Mac FTP client. I don't think they are  
imagining it ;)

Here's a couple of examples:

http://www.musingsfrommars.org/index.php?p=1133&postcat=25

The main reason YFTP achieves higher speeds is because it uses  
several simultaneous connections at once, so don't expect any speed  
improvements on a single file transfer - you won't see any.  
Similarly, a single folder won't see much of a speed gain, although  
as someone else noted, I've taken special care not to use 100% CPU  
while doing so ....

Anyway, time this thread closed, I think.
