Popsy Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 I have noticed that the upload speeds of the other client that I use (BitTornado 0.3.7), drop dramatically when I start utorrent (1.6 b. 474), even though utorrent is not uploading that much.The problem disappears as soon as I stop utorrent.The setting I use are:Global Max Upload Rate: 6Global Max Download Rate: 0Enable upnp is checked out.Global max connections: 100Max no. of connected peers: 40No. of upload slots: 1DHT & Peer Exchange enabled.Max. no. of active torrents/active downloads: both 50The OS used is Win MCE SP2.I'd be grateful if the experienced members could help me out here.Thanks.

Ultima Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 For one thing, you have TOO many active downloads. Also, optimally, you shouldn't use 2 clients... Any reason you're using both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popsy Posted November 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 I'll try reducing the no. of active downloads (I've reduced it to 25), & get back if it helps. The reason for using 2 clients is that I personally like using BT for uploading & downloading from private trackers where the ratio is closely watched & utorrent for other trackers, that are not so stiff with ratios.That is why I am bothered when BT speed drop in combination with utorrent usage.I'd appreciate any other opinions too.Thanks, Ultima.

Switeck Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 If you are only uploading at 6 KB/sec, you shouldn't have more than 6 active torrents at once...even at worst! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popsy Posted November 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 I have tried reducing the no. of active torrents, but still utorrent is slowing down the upload speed of the other client. The total of the upload speeds of all applications is reduced to almost half of what it is earlier, as soon as utorrent is started.Please advise.

Ultima Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 How fast is your connection's upload speed...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popsy Posted November 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 The up speed is 32 kBps, when unhampered by anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 Try reducing connections to only 40 or less, 1 torrent at a time with half-open max set to only 4.Have you disabled UPnP and DHT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
