javacatpaul Posted March 21, 2021 Report Share Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) New Question: I don't see that the automatic application of the upload limit [from Prefs |Queueing] is being applied once the seeding goal has been reached. Both the upload continues to use lots of bandwidth and the "Up Limit" column remains blank [which means unlimited]. Shouldn't the "Up Limit" column fill-in with the preset limit once seeding-goal has been reached? And of course it shd throttle-down. Also, when I do intervene and apply a manual "upload limit" it seems to fall down to 0 and stay there a long time rather than falling to the set limit; is this a normal hysteresis effect of UTP? It stays about 0 and then finally climbs back up after about 5 minutes; could be normal I guess.... running 45966 W7x64 [still]. Thanks..

rafi Posted March 21, 2021 Report Share Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) A1. It should, unless you also enable pref->bandwidth->Alternate upload rate when not downloading, which overrides it. A2. It's a possible behavior. I wouldn't call it normal tho... Maybe you have set it to enable limiting of overhead too, which can contribute to this side-effect and chock traffic.

Maybe you have set it to enable limiting of overhead too, which can contribute to this side-effect and chock traffic. OK, I do have "alternate upload rate when not downloading" checked and set to basically double the global UL limit when not DL anything. Seems like the nice thing to do, so I'll leave that. I also have "apply rate limit to transport overhead" as that seemed logical too. Since overhead is always small relatively I will try unchecking that to reduce any side effects. And, since the ETA column goes blank when the seeding goal has been met I guess that's a suitable-enough indicator for the user. Thanks.

rafi Posted March 21, 2021 Report Share Posted March 21, 2021 Yes, I have it set to unlimited when not downloading (It is the right thing to do if your connection can handle it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshace Posted March 28, 2021 Report Share Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) I actually believed that Utorrent 3.5.5 build 45952 finally fixed the problem of randomly dissociating files - which causes all sorts of problems. I got my database of torrents 100% fixed, which took nearly a week to accomplish. 7800 torrents running just fine. But then.. for no reason.. without a crash.. about 900 of them lost their associations again. I give up! Qbittorrent seems to be the most promising replacement for Utorrent/Bittorrent. They just updated to version 4.3.4.1 and there is a 64 bit version. Rafi and a couple of others have been doing a fantastic job of making Utorrent work as best it can, and helping people overcome problems. The fact that Rafi's repeated pleas for a 64 bit version have been ignored - tells me that Utorrent is never going to solve it's problems. I am keeping utorrent on my computer, but I won't be using it to download new torrents. I will use it to seed old torrents, and probably phase it out completely in about a year. Microsoft Windows operating system and Facebook are also loaded with errors that will probably never be fixed. It's interesting that in TV shows and in movies, computers are always shown working flawlessly, with no delays - yet in reality.. we get shit. Microsoft makes untold billion$ off of it's crappy software, even though you don't buy it directly, every computer product you purchase is forced to pay royalties to Microsoft. Even if your computer doesn't run Windows, computer manufacturers STILL have to pay Microsoft for every motherboard they produce. It's great to have a monopoly! Likewise with Facebook. All facebook cares about is collecting and verifying your name, mobile phone number, location, email addresses and any other information that is none of their business, so that they can sell it to advertisers, marketers, investigators, government agencies, and anybody else that will pay for it. Facebook even does their best to prevent you from using your own database of friends and followers to do anything. Their lists are not alphabetical, not consistent, and unusable. If Qbittorrent has big problems, I will let you know. So far, I am very impressed with Qbittorrent. It is very smooth and fast, and doesn't lock up or crash. The one tiny problem I found is that if you have a torrent that contains multiple files, but you choose to skip some of them.. everything is fine UNLESS you then add those files later. To fix it, you must remove the torrent (making sure you don't remove the files as well) and then add the torrent back and re-check it. This is a very minor problem that I am sure they will fix. Most people never skip files within a torrent - and when they do, they don't add them back - so they would never notice this error.

gjm Posted April 13, 2021 Report Share Posted April 13, 2021 De-associated, and re-associated. Just need to find something I want to download! (The downloading bit works without issue.) Latest problem is a persistent message that pops up when starting uTorrent. A newer version of uTorrent, 3.5.5 build 45974 is already running. Would you like to downgrade to 3.5.5 build 45852? Choose "No" to continue running uTorrent." I choose 'No'. This is a persistent issue. It's appeared for the last 3 or 4 beta version updates.

icebox Posted April 25, 2021 Report Share Posted April 25, 2021 Are you sure this is GDI stable? After around 10 hours it had 530 GDI open, and after adding 10 torrents, then moving and deleting 10 different torrents in the program, it has 661. It definitely gave some GDI back, peak was around 780 during use, but that it didn't go back when the same number of torrents is in the program, and no significantly different paths for the new compared to the old, I am concerned.

rafi Posted April 25, 2021 Report Share Posted April 25, 2021 (edited) What I am sure of, is that the previous leak , which was root caused to the new BT Speed (so every refresh of that icon leaked) - was fixed . It does not mean there aren't any other leaks, just that manual operations like you are describing - will never reach 10K, so the related increases are not that important...

icebox Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 Well, depends on how long you go without reboots/shutting down the program I guess. The problem is the "set download location" function. This is how I move content files before deleting the torrents. When this function is used, not all GDI objects used in displaying the file window are returned when the window is closed. Seems to be ~ 10 or so GDI per torrent, and I tend to do this in batches of up to 20 at a time. Small, but its there. Now up to 831. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted April 28, 2021 Report Share Posted April 28, 2021 (edited) I am using this function often, probably not massively as you are tho... Never had real GDI related issues after those actions. It is a minimal leak. I'd let it be, have the devs focus on more important issues, like easily reaching GUI overload (not GDI related) when reaching 40MB/s rate or so over time... It is poorly designed (process-wise). Edited April 28, 2021 by rafi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
