What do you mean by "don't update" ? Can you show a screenshot with your "Feeds" category view' date=' including the column "Added" ?[/quote'] I can confirm this behaviour. As noted in another thread (http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=640264) if any torrent from the RSS feed is in the torrent list (whether downloading, seeding or just stopped) then only torrents that are in the torrent list will be displayed in the RSS feed list. This appears to be a purely cosmetic bug - the full RSS feed is still present (you can access it via the web UI) and RSS filters still work. However, it means that if people want to manually add torrents from the RSS feed they are currently unable to do so (except from the web UI).

0% = 100% if the size is 0 (or blank... ) so it is "complete" ... I would say that adding a magnet link should be automatically followed by loading the torrent file itself. Thus' date=' problem solved...[/quote'] +1 I've suggested this a couple of times - maybe you'll have more luck rafi.

No - if you read my earlier posts you'll see that I get 20Mbps sustained download, but I've only seen 15Mbps while torrenting (so far) - the 20Mbps is while downloading over a single connection. Obviously the overheads of managing the increased number of connections also cuts into usable bandwidth when torrenting (and who knows - maybe I've got a 20% uTP overhead as was posted 2 posts above, but I haven't investigated). Now, I agree with you that 10Mbps down/0.25Mbps up is pretty ridiculous (though I lived with it for 7 years ...), but 20Mbps down/0.85Mbps up works quite well most of the time. ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) is entirely based on the idea that people download a lot more than they upload. Obviously, that's not true for torrenters, but the idea underlies all broadband internet services in Australia, and for the majority of people it is still true. I should also add that other net activities are not being affected in the slightest when torrenting, although that's possibly invalid for this discussion because I run cFosSpeed on my server (where the torrents happen) which does bandwidth management to ensure that torrents have the lowest priority (though ACKs on that machine are still high priority).

Wasn't long ago I had 10Mbps down/0.25Mbps up (on Optus cable) ... torrenting was somewhat difficult because it was so easy to saturate the upload with ACKs. I think the best I ever managed to download was about 400kBps (i.e. approx 3Mbps or 1/3 of my available). Now with the increased upload I can manage around 5 times the speed ... In addition to the highly asymmetric down/up speeds here in Australia, we also have pretty restrictive quotas. I have 50GB/month, and then I'm shaped to 64kbps down and up - or I can buy additional data blocks. My ISP doesn't count uploads (except on one of its plans) but many other ISPs include all uploaded data in the quota as well.

I wasn't actually watching it (just checked the average) but its impossible to just look at two torrents and compare. The only reasonably valid way is to collect your maximum sustained speeds over a significant period of time and compare them. Individual torrents are luck of the draw (although if you've got a good i.e. non-Australian upload speed, you're more likely to get consistent performance). Unfortunately, I'm not in a good position to do comparisons as I've made several changes recently - new ADSL2+ router, upgraded my server to Windows 7 (64-bit), upgraded to 2.0. I can say that with Windows 7 and the new router my speeds are definitely better, can't say anything about 1.8.5 vs 2.0. Speaking of which - could be new hardware (just upgraded my main machine), could be software, but whereas with my E6300/XP machine I could get approx 400Mbps from my Windows 7 server, with my i7 860/Windows 7 machine I can get 900Mbps from my Windows 7 server i.e. I'm pretty much maxing out my internal 1Gbps network. Now the wait is on for consumer-level 10Gbps hardware ...

Actually, it's quite common here in Australia - I've got approx 20Mbps (sustained) download and 0.85Mbps sustained upload. ADSL and ADSL2+ are the primary forms of connection, and even cable users are artificially capped to similar down/up speeds. People usually only get better down:up ratios because they're further from the exchange and their download speed drops dramatically. I've got <1km of cable to the exchange, new wiring + central filter in my house and new ADSL2+ router, so I've pretty much got the best possible on ADSL2+. The other option is that some ISPs offer Annex Mode M (if you're connected to their DSLAMS, and not Telstra's), which allows you to sacrifice some download bandwidth for upload. If you're lucky you might get to 2.5Mbps upload. I could really use the extra upload (since I work from home 3 days per week), but unfortunately whilst I'm with such an ISP (Internode), I have to use Telstra's DSLAM. Anyway, I seem to be managing to download just fine - got 15Mbps down with uTorrent 1.8.5 the other day, and approx 8Mbps down with uTorrent 2.0 yesterday.
