Poromenos Posted November 5, 2005 Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 An option to ignore the torrent if its download speed was less than X kb/s would be good. This way, a torrent that is downloading at 2 kb/s does not hog all the other torrents. In this scenario, that torrent would still be downloading in the order it is set to, it just wouldn't count towards your total limit. If you had 3 torrents downloading at the same time, it would just ignore that one and since now the number is 2, it would start another one. If the torrent started picking up speed, it would count in the limit again, stopping the lowermost one. That kb/s is an average over many cycles, of course, not just a one-time measurement.

chaosblade Posted November 5, 2005 Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 You have the "Dont Count Slow Torrents" options:Options -> prefernces -> Advanced options -> quque.dont_count_slow.ul\dl .You cant change the KB it works on, but it should provide for what you want.

Poromenos Posted November 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 Ah, great, thanks. Maybe a checkbox in the Torrent Preferences for easier access? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poromenos Posted November 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 Also, what KB does it work on currently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted November 5, 2005 Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 1 KB/s.In the future it might be changeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poromenos Posted November 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 Oh. 1 KB/s is not very much at all, I don't think any torrents will go that slow. I would like to skip them on 5-6 KB, but I'm sure it's easy to add an option for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalimist Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 This option is similar to "manually peer ban", I don't know why it should be implemented and why the manual ban don'tIn fact, this option is more agressive than the ban. Dial-up users will be automatically ignored (banned) if you configure this to skip peers uploading below 6 kB/sec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Um... this is to make slow torrents not take up an active slot when downloading/uploading. This has nothing to do with peer ban or "skipping peers". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosblade Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Exactly, Kalimist. Totally unrelated things.. This only helps manage the queue \ max active torrents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
