conquerist Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 On my first launch of uTorrent 3.4.2 build 39586 (upgrading from build 38913) I noticed:uTorrent has a constant 100% CPU utilization on one coreAfter selecting "Exit", uTorrent does not close. The icon disappears from task bar, the window disappears, but the process remains with 100% CPU utilization.After ending the uTorrent process with the task manager and restarting uTorrent, the same behavior repeated. I have not had these issues with any other 3.4.2 build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike20021969 Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 Using Windows XP, upon launch 3.4.2.39586 is using either 0.78 or nothing (no figure) of the CPU.No problems exiting or ending the process either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toto954682 Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 Same problem for me ! And I can't use this new version (speed download doesn't stable. The previous version is very stable) Using Windows Server 2003 I downgrade to 3.4.2 build 38913, it's very stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamK Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 Hello, Can you dump the process and post a link in this thread? That will make it easier to see what is going on. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pharaoh_ Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 I can totally confirm this and I have both of the issues mentioned above. I usually have no reason to visit the forums, but I wondered whether anyone else has had the same issue - and indeed, I am not alone.Every time I open it, CPU consumption rises up to 100%. If I kill the process, it closes, but it keeps running through the Background Processes (continuing to consume CPU), so I have to kill it twice. I really want to downgrade, but I have 1100 torrents, each with its own label and path and I will lose the seeding ratio (visually). Although I have never done it before and I am not sure whether such info will be saved, I am not risking this. I am using Windows 8.1, 64-bit. This weird behavior started after the final update (build 39586), as previously stated by conquerist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can to downgrade to version 3.4.2 build 38913 without loss yours torrents but you must not uninstall µTorrent. When you launch install file, it will ask you if you want to downgrade. And It works without loss torrents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leorick Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 I've been having problems with uTorrent since yesterday. This new build is eating up my cpu cycles. What is happening? Did Epic Scale finally made it's way inside the utorrent source code or what? I'm running Windows 7 64-bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conquerist Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Can you dump the process and post a link in this thread?I've now returned from 38913 to 39586 and am trying to recreate this behavior. No luck so far. Hopefully someone else will be able to provide a dump. I've been having problems with uTorrent since yesterday. This new build is eating up my cpu cycles. What is happening?

talkingprawn Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Hey all -- shot in the dark, as we haven't been able to reproduce the behavior yet, but after looking at the changes between 38913 and 39586 I saw one potential culprit. For those of you experiencing this issue, can you please download and install this version: http://download-new.utorrent.com/uuid/9abb9424-1dd4-4c2d-8595-e0fc8122d76d(build 39704) and let us know if it still shows this behavior? Thank you for your help here, we're working to fix this asap. j. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conquerist Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 I'm testing the build now. I'll report back in an hour or so. [edit] 39704 is still looking good after an hour. All three times that I've launched 39586, the 100% CPU issue showed up within 5-10 minutes after launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baux3 Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Strange behaviour... Had the same problem and as a quick solution I unchecked the 'start utorrent with windows', 'start minimised', automatic update' and 'send info..'. I needed a quick fix, so I didn't start the program any more. Now a fiend called me to ask what could be wrong with utorrent (same behaviour), and this is why I'm here on the forum. I started the program and everything seems fine now. I restored my previous preferences restarted the computer e few times but no everything seems fine, the problem is gone. I'm using windows 7 64 bits and my friend windows 8.1 64 bits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
