A private tracker with bonus point income formula of:
bp/hr = size * ( 0.25 + ( 0.6 * ln(1+seedtime) / (seeds^0.6) ) )
where seedtime is in days.

Given that it is possible to multiply your earned seedtime by seeding from multiple clients, but doing so adds to the seed count, if you were planning on seeding for, say, 365 days and wanted to maximize your income seeding from one additional client, at what time should you stop seeding from that extra client for torrents where:
1. You are the sole seeder.
2. It is just you and one other seed.

Also, at what number of seeds would it not be worth it at all to drop the extra seed you're adding? Going from 2 to 1 seed is a huge boost in BP income. Going from 100 to 99... not so much.

So, at 730 days of accumulated seedtime by running two clients for a year, with two seeds you'd be making 2.86 BP per gigabyte. With one seed at 365 days it's 3.79. So obviously there's a point well before the real year mark where you should switch to single-seeding.
A single seed crosses the 2.86BP per gigabyte threshold at 77 days accumulated seedtime. Is that the crossover point?
