A leech, on the other hand, is a BitTorrent user who downloads the files shared by the seeds and does not seed back to other users.

The download time for a file shared via BitTorrent depends on the number of seeders available for that file; more seeders mean higher torrent speed. Techopedia Explains Seed In addition to seeders and leechers, there are peers who are users downloading a file, have part of it, yet are simultaneously uploading the downloaded part to other users. Even though the peers share back the files simultaneously, the actual torrent speed mainly depends on the number of seeders available for the shared file.

For example, assume that a seed is seeding a file at 50 kbps, and there are five leechers to download that file. Initially, the file is shared at 10 kbps each for every leech.
