Max Upload limit on torrents

when i went to azureus' wikipage it said that torrent programs shouldn't be run with infinite uploads selected and has a table with appropriate upload speeds.
I figger, since Im at work, and don't really care if all of the bandwith is used on sending stuff out, so long as im bringing stuff in, infinite is fine.
Soo... any techies or other knowledgeable people about to say "wonka, your a fucking retard" ?

I set mine at 50 kB/s, which leaves some leg room to surf the internet. Most cable/dsl connection get about 768 kpbs upload, so this seems about right. Whatever your speed is, divide it by 8 and multiply it by 0.85.
By this formula, I would probably do fine at about 80 kB/s.
Here's a site where you can test your bandwidth.
PS: there is a Science and Technology forum here.

Tried the bandwidth linkage
2637.4 Kbps
seems slower than that though.

729 / 8 * .85 came to 77 and change. So when I'm at work and not dicking around on the compute I'll set it to infinite and beyond, and whilst I'm at it, max of 70

No, you always want it at that speed because you are basically "promising" people you can handle a certain load, and when you don't live up to expectations, they will no longer trade packets with you. Anyways, you only have maybe 10% more to gain from speed.
