  1. The history of people wanting that function for stupid reasons is WHY we don't have it in even after 5 years. People WILL use it stupidly if we put it in at all. His reasons for wanting it are meaningless because uTorrent already has automatic mechanisms for dealing with that situation.
  2. No it won't. There's already mechanisms in place to deal with bad data. A right-click and kick/ban peer will ONLY be abused for micromanaging of torrents which will cause massive performance hits swarm-wide if left unchecked.
  3. The performance gain from a large cache with torrenting is negligible at best. With NCQ alone (on supporting drives) the performance is usually high enough that unless you're transferring significantly faster than your cache size you won't actually see the cache get big. When the typical user has a cache that large, they're trying to deal with an excessive number of torrents (even people with 100mbit symmetric connections). If you're trying to save your drive, having it used little enough that it spins down is worse for it than running it ragged. It's the reason I turned off the intellipark function on my 4 WD greens in my fileserver (it would head-park after 8s of idle by default). The ONLY reason to have any amount of increased disk cache is performance. With platter drives, there really is no such thing as "unnecessary read" because you're keeping your drive from spinning down.
  4. What problem do you get when you try?
  5. It downloads perfectly fine, you don't need it emailed to you.
  6. Except that the only benefit that having a 64-bit process gives is the ability to not crash with a disk cache size above about 1500MB. And if your disk cache is using that much you have other problems to worry about.
  7. I'm sorry, no. We don't support downgrading as a troubleshooting step.
  8. In your configuration, it won't work.
  9. And masca, cross-posting is rude. Final warning.
  10. Copy your peer list from the peers tab and see, I'm betting at least two or three of the addresses point at your own computer.
  11. network address translation PLUS proxy means the regular webuis won't work.
  12. Perhaps you should look around in these forums before posting. There's already mobile device designed web uis.
