Rapidleech is a free, open-source PHP script that acts as a "leech" for file-sharing sites. Instead of downloading a file directly from a host like Rapidgator or Uploaded.net to a personal computer—which may be limited by local bandwidth or ISP throttling—the script downloads the file directly to a web server.
RapidLeech can run on virtually any hosting plan that supports PHP, including shared hosting, VPS, or even locally using XAMPP or WAMP. However, note that many shared hosting providers explicitly prohibit the use of RapidLeech due to its high resource consumption—especially bandwidth, disk I/O, and CPU. For production use, a VPS with at least 512 MB of RAM and adequate bandwidth is recommended.
