I was curious to compare Spark vs Google Talk and found some interesting results…maybe someone could shed some light on it:
When testing the file transfer, Google was much faster compared to Spark. I did use my google account through Spark…so I’'m wondering if that caused the speed difference.

What exactly was faster? Download negotiation or download itself? Maybe Spark is trying some mechanism that are not supported in Gtalk, so it takes longer to start a download. Anyway, Spark is designed to be Openfire part, not just woirk with any xmpp service.
