ondjultomte Posted October 31, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 diskio flush file was false.I tried to turn it on now and see what happends.edit: it seemed to help now the memory allocation peaked at 300MB and now when I checked it was at 30MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keloran Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 windows is crap at cache usage(iirc)with flush off, windows only allocates cache if requiredwith flush on, uT tells windows to flush the cache every 5min, and thus it frees the spare cache thats not needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ondjultomte Posted November 7, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 I got some problem again with utorrent and it allocating very much memory .this time it allocated about 200 MB , I have flush file on and queue size of 4096.the problem occured when I started to dl 8 torrents at the same time.

ondjultomte Posted November 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 I tried it again this morning, queued up 12 torrents, 6 of them started to DL and the memory allocation sky rocked ... But mem usage actually peaked at 156 MB now, then it declined as soon as some of the torrents finished.it stalled at 80MB and the when more torrents started to dl after the first few was finnished mem usage sky rocked againthis time to over 300MB ...Something is really wrong with utorrent and its usage of files/filecache.utorrent if fine as long as you dl one or two torrents .... max! So I tried to limit the max simultanious DLs to 2 torrents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCedHrt Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Well for one thing, you increased your disk queue by 4x.What did you set for the maximum number of connected peers and have you ever modified your TCP window settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tumu Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 Server OS's have LargeFileCache enabled by default. It can cause memory use skyrocket. It can be disabled from going to properties of any adapter in Network and Dialup Connections and choosing Minimize memory used in File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks properties.
