    Reading around shows that uTor devs will blame windows caching but does anyone know of any settings we can adjust to prevent this from occurring? 

    One more w/a (lowering memory priority of utorrent in Windows cache), let me know if that helped over time: 

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\utorrent.exe][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\utorrent.exe\PerfOptions] "PagePriority"=dword:00000001

    So, you are complaining about slow speed, not that it does not obey your set  limits... You are aware, that these are LIMITS, not promised maximum, right?...  In this case just set DL limit to 0, and upload limit to, say, 80% of your *UPLOAD* connection rate and try test with this:

  17. Downloading, but not downloading...?

    If you do not do any change to the setting the torrent will auto-start after clicking OK on the options dialog. If you forgot to skip files, OR the metadata - has not been pre-loaded yet and you press OK - it might start before you can see the metadata (files list) and skip them, which would cause your problem. I believe you might have made that mistake.

    Check/enable  "do not start"  to be sure.

    Feels like Windows cache management related (or lack of...). Have you tried with a larger swap file? I have it set to a custom 16GB (in my case - on C, SSD).

    Windows caching has it's own setups, and also many RAM flushing/cleaning utilities you can try. One thing you can try, is to run it minimized, so to eliminate GUI leaks, which I don't believe it has now (or check GDI objects increase in task manager)...

     

    Edit:

    It is explained a bit more - here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/you-experience-performance-issues-in-applications-and-services-when-the-system-file-cache-consumes-most-of-the-physical-ram-9130b83c-aef1-9ed8-830b-07a2543a70eb

    There are utilities like RAMMap64.exe  which you can use periodically to "help" windows, or - https://thegeekpage.com/clear-ram-cache-memory/ ...
