treedmack Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Has anyone had the problem of irregular upload speeds resulting from sudden bursts of upload slots? I ask for 6 or so and then suddenly the number of peers jumps to a huge number, my total upload spikes to several times my limit set in preferences, the number of slots then decreases more slowly back to 6. Then this happens all over again. These are well seeded torrents but the download speed gets interrupted by this behavior. It seems to happen a lot with the http://eztv.sladinki007.net:60500/announce tracker. I DO NOT have the "use additional upload slots if upload speed <90%" box checked so this doesn't seem to be the problem. It doesn't seem to happen with other trackers. Anyone experience this?

treedmack Posted November 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 It is a peculiar behavior with some trackers (e.g. the one quoted in my post). I have no problems with other trackers/torrents. The tracker in question seems to cause the behavior outlined in my post. it seems to prevent me from controlling the number of upload slots. utorrent behaves like it has a mind of it's own. Again, other trackers/torrents can max-out my line (1.2MByte/s) and always be restricted to the number of upload slots I deside to assign. Anyone interested try out the torrent http://www.mininova.org/tor/478123 and see if you get similar behavior from utorrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 What can I say then? The peers using that tracker are irregular =o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
