Torrents start as queued seed and emptying that queue is what is ridiculously slow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torrents start as queued seed and emptying that queue is what is ridiculously slow. I've recently had issues with torrents that come up as 'Stopped' and there is nothing I can do to start them. Then they'll start of their own accord a while later. Not seen that before, after years of using uTorrent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 Maybe increasing the number of allowed active torrents can help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjm Posted March 23, 2022 Report Share Posted March 23, 2022 1 hour ago, rafi said: Maybe increasing the number of allowed active torrents can help? I thought of that. 6 active torrents, but 20 allowed. I checked active upload/download settings, bandwidth, and so on. If I have exceeded max active torrents in the past, I've normally (I think) been able to 'Force Start' a further torrent, and the application stops processing a previously active one. I even wondered if it was a 'feature' that came up when there where no peers available, but that doesn't appear to be the case either - one stopped torrent had 6 peers and2 seeds.

rafi Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 (edited) I don't see this here (I have ~10 seeding torrents that starts almost immediately). Which build # has this slow emptying of the [seeding] Q started? Just the latest one? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KaP_mmRAB0T4Ri-lu95jRCyKgqFXFV3p/view?usp=sharing Edited March 24, 2022 by rafi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding your problem, have you tried moving the best seeded torrents up the queue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

javacatpaul Posted June 3, 2022 Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 3.5.5.46286 BETA is out, via standard link: https://download-hr.utorrent.com/track/beta/endpoint/utorrent/os/windows dated jun 1 2022, size 1976 kb, so small installer. seems fine...

javacatpaul Posted June 3, 2022 Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 (edited) The "standard" link for "release" [not beta] also goes to a new release, said to be 3.5.5.46276, but that exe is not branded normally and lists its version as 3.5.0.0. It does have a date of 3jun22, and its size is 1726 kb. Major Geeks also links to this "new stable release". I did not try it, seems fishy to me...size and vers num info just seems off somehow...

SergeyQA Posted June 3, 2022 Report Share Posted June 3, 2022 This build is safe.3.5.5.0.0.0 is just downloader, which pulls current stable and installs it. It shows the correct build number during the installation as soon as actual installer downloaded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javacatpaul Posted June 4, 2022 Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 (edited) re: 46286 beta I have noticed that this new version takes a very long time to exit [if it exits at all!], after several minutes the parent process still hasn't exited. Something changed. I only have about 40 jobs in my list, prev version only took about 10-15 seconds to exit-out completely. I do have "exit cleanly" selected, always have. Anyone else notice this?? Yeah, on last test run it never exited at all, parent process and one child are still running after 10 minutes, it won't exit. BUG... FWIW W7 x64... Think I will revert... Yeah, 46248 works fine, takes 2 secs for child proccesses to exit, another 5 or so for main process to exit, all clean. Gonna say 286 needs checking...

I'm not having any issues at all (so far). 46248 would occasionally lock-up for me, requiring Task Manager to force a shutdown. 46286 hasn't (yet) done that. And it closes, for me, as I'd expect - quickly and cleanly. Edit: The whole experience feels more 'slick'.

Seems that with this build - the GUI is responsive all the time and is not freezing, disc / disc-cache are not overloading, and the DL speed is maxing my connection rate... Good work, devs! https://www.imagebam.com/view/MEB59F8 https://www.imagebam.com/view/MEB59F9 No shutdown/exit delays as well.

javacatpaul Posted June 5, 2022 Report Share Posted June 5, 2022 Well, it's repeatable for me, hangs every time and must use taskmngr to kill. I'd imagine it has something to do with graceful_shutdown. FWIW, these are my shutdown params: bt.graceful_shutdown true bt.shutdown_tracker_timeout 15 bt.shutdown_upnp_timeout 5 as far as smoother GUI etc, never noticed it was bad before, seems the same to me with 286. But I never have a lot of jobs, 40 or so is max. And still using W7, I hate the ribbon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you "install" the updates as standalone (not in appdata, beside an older settings.dat )? It should NOT do any "install" and just replace the exe. I think it fails to go that way...

I'd been running 46248 without installing it, following a computer rebuild - as an almost portable implementation. It had the settings stored, of course. I was lazy with the new version and just ran it as a installer, then deleted the old files. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjm Posted June 9, 2022 Report Share Posted June 9, 2022 (edited) Today I am having problems. Selected a dozen or so magnets. They open in uTorrent and typically the dialog box populates after 5 seconds to a minute or so. (Some take longer, some are instant.) That's all normal. But I am unable to start the download process. I click on the 'OK' box, and while the button shows being pressed, nothing happens. I'm unable to select/deselect individual files, and cannot edit the folder name. The 'Cancel' button does not work,and neither does the 'X' in the top right corner of the dialog box. I can close uTorrent by right-clicking the icon in the system tray, but the dialog boxes persist for some time. Edit 1: Reopening uTorrent shows the magnets are now in the Labels > Hidden area; all are Stopped and they will not start. So, I have deleted these torrents, and downloaded .torrent files. If I select a single fie, it opens and can be manipulated as usual. However, if I select multiple .torrent files and open them all, I have the same issue experienced before. Edit 2: And now I find that using 'Alt-F', 'X' to close uTorrent didn't work. I was able to using the 'File' menu to select Exit.
