Bobdylan Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 When i download at speeds.. above 500kB/s my computer gets very slow, and over 1,0mB/s its completely impossible to even open a folder. Besides to "Network OK" uTorrent says "Disk Overloaded", I imagine thats the problem but what does it mean? I have a rather new 7200 RPM disc that works completely fine except when i download. Can i fix it by options or have my disc just become slow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfire Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Try defragmenting the disk first or try downloading to a physically non-paging disk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1c3d0g Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Maybe your network is saturating your PC's I/O subsystem for some reason (I have that problem). Try this:Options ▶ Preferences... ▶ Advanced Options:● diskio.write_queue_size = 8192 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slayers Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 That's the best error you could ask for! It means your downloads are blazing fast!!Go into advanced options and set your diskio.write_queue_size to 4000. In my opinion it should be at least 4 times your max download speed (in your case 1000). That will eliminate the "Disk Overloaded" error and maybe the sluggishness as well.EDIT: v1.2 now can automatically adjust your queue size. Just put -1 in the diskio.write_queue_size setting. This is the default value for new installations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
