This means you could download your torrents +on for example a remote VPS. As torrents heavily rely on both upload and +download speeds, you can expect a tremendous increase in speed thanks to the +high upload speeds of servers.

On Ubuntu, you can install +these as follows: + +`sudo apt install docker.io docker-compose` + +For other distros, just use their respective package manager.
