Ryrynz Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 (edited) Just had 44632 just completely force close on me after I started downloading a torrent, never had that happen before, no dump file either, nothing in the Windows logs. =/ What the heck happened to 3.5.5? Looks like I've frozen it this time, disk cache overload, whole UI is frozen. Guess I need to tame my download speed. Ain't the first person to experience this and sure won't be the last. The client sure as heck shouldn't be hanging.. Just stop the torrent for a bit or something? uTorrent should be smart enough to choke a torrent if the disk can't keep up.

rafi Posted November 3, 2018 Report Share Posted November 3, 2018 oh, so, the auto-directed from the generate beta link?

Ryrynz Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 (edited) The UI responsiveness needs some work, I've got uTorrent completely freezing the UI while it downloads fine in the background, the mouse over in the taskbar shows uTorrent is downloading/uploading & completing torrents fine but the UI isn't updating if I bring up the full window and at times it just stays blank with no torrents showing in the window at all. My CPU is only at 25% (It's a quad i7) and I have oodles of RAM to spare. Once the torrent has finished downloading, the UI is back to working properly again. Doubt it'll make much difference but I changed the GUI to update every 2 seconds instead of 1. ANyone got any other options they know of that might help?

mike20021969 Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 @Ryrynz Does using default settings give you the same problem? How many active torrents? I feel like I'm missing out cos I never have any issues at all ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryrynz Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 (edited) Haven't changed much of anything, certainly haven't touched any of the more advanced stuff, just cache and ads, connections, loathe to do defaults TBH, wouldn't that mess with my labels? Bout 350 active. 500 max connections is pretty sane yeah? Maybe I should lower it a bit more? Anyway does the UI not have it's own thread or something? Changed a few GUI options as well, will report back if it improves things. Edited November 4, 2018 by Ryrynz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Changed a few GUI options as well, will report back if it improves things. Make a backup of the folder that contains all the *.dat files etc., so restoring back shouldn't be an issue. The only file that would be changed for default values would be the settings.dat file (and re-blocking the ad value entries shouldn't be too much hassle).

rafi Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 (edited) Changing the GUI refresh rate gui.update_rate from 1000 msec to 2000 or 3000 can help , but just a bit... And 300 active, and 500 connections (active downloads) is too mach IMHO ....

Tried some tweaks but UI still freezes. net.low_cpu isn't set and the only thing I thought might be related here. WebUI is perfectly fine, updates in time but the main UI is completely frozen until downloads slow down. Seems to happen when it reaches about 20MB/s or so, UI comes right after it drops below this. PC is still responsive, CPU only at 25% so it's related to the amount of connections and the UI, I might drop the connections by half and see if that changes anything, I'd rather the performance anyway screw the UI, but the dev/s should look at making the UI better threaded perhaps.

Most likely 3.5.4.44846 is reading the updates.dat file and detecting 3.6.6 and not taking the build into account also. For me, updates.dat is not (really) necessary for uTorrent to work as it should. It basically just stores every version of uTorrent you've used. Personally, I disabled updates.dat years ago (now an empty 0 kB, Read-only file). Take the plunge - replace the binary and enjoy the latest "slimline" Stable before it balloons again Edited November 6, 2018 by mike20021969 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
