Hinkster2000 Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 What do these numbers mean: 1(3) or 0(5) in the Download/Seed Columns? Those numbers are just examples, btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 The FAQ actually doesn't answer that question. Though it's been answered in the forums dozens of times (literally).Seeds displays the number of seeds you are connected to, and the number of seeds in the swarm in the parentheses. The number in the swarm is collected from the tracker and other methods of exchanging peers, such as DHT or Peer Exchange.Peers displays the number of peers you are connected to, and the number of peers in the swarm in the parentheses.

Ultima Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Yes, most likely, though the tracker's information can be out of date sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chupakabra Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Peers displays the number of peers you are connected to, and the number of peers in the swarm in the parentheses.uTorrent shows me "5(6)" in Peers column and "5 of 6 connected (0 in swarm)" in torrent details. How many peers are in the swarm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 0 is from the tracker. 6 is how many µTorrent's seen in the swarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chupakabra Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 What is the meaning of MaxUp, MaxDown and Queued columns on Peers tab?Is it possible to find out peer upload rate similar to how "Peer download rate" is detected? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 No you can't tell how fast the peer is uploading. Even the "download rate" isn't accurate at all -- it's an extremely rough estimate that should barely be taken seriously.MaxUp is the peak, unaveraged speed at which you were uploading to the peer. This value is displayed in bytes per second.MaxDown is the peak, unaveraged speed at which you were downloading from the peer. This value is displayed in bytes per second.Queued displays the number of bytes requested by a peer that was left unsent by your client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yanksno1 Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 Still a little confused on what the numbers in the ( ) mean with seeding. Right now I'm seeding a few torrents and see 0(7), 0(3), 0(4) in the seeds respectively. So does that mean that 7, 3, and 4 people are helping me seed? What does that mean in this case?

Ultima Posted December 23, 2006 Report Share Posted December 23, 2006 If the tracker is reporting accurately, then it means 6, 2, and 3 people are seeding along with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
