si1enc3d Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 Is it normal for a big file (like a few gigs) to have 100 MB+ discarded data? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 depends on the piece size and the swarm's overall size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
si1enc3d Posted July 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 the piece size is like 1 mb and the swarm size is about 600-700 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 Then it is certainly possible to have over 100mb of discarded data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 Pretty normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 It becomes a worse problem if you have maximum connections per torrent set very high as well as allowing lots of upload slots -- especially with a low uplod speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBear Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Does anyone remember that computer programmer for a bank that had the small fractions of pennies (from rounding numbers converting binary to decimal and back) deposited into an account and because so many transactions occurred daily he quickly amassed a fortune?Same thing, except the µTorrent team simply have uber-excellent ratios all over the 'net.

Switeck Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 TheBear:If your average upload slot speed is very slow then you're probably contributing to wasted data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
