Hi,

I know I'm pretty much ashamed that I'm ignorant of this, but in real
performance terms, am I better off allowing visitors to download off the
anonymous ftp, or allow downloads through HTTP?

What are the advantages or disadvantages if any?

P.S I know this belongs on the techniques list, but I also know that there
are a lot of knowledgeable people here.
