ScubaSteve Posted November 12, 2005 Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 i moved my mouse over the tray icon of 1.2 earlier and saw it was uploading at 3kB/s. at the time i disregarded it as i have been seeding 2 torrents for the last few hours and just assumed that they were uploading to someone. i opened the window to check my ratio and to my horror discovered that there was no peers connected at all yet it was wasting 3kB/s of my bandwidth doing absolutetly nothing. both torrents are from oinks and dht is disabled by default becase of the private flag. back in 1.1.7 it would never go above 0.2 but now all of a sudden its using a constant 0.8 - 3kB/s. it has also been using between 0.7 - 2kB/s of download too.any explanation as to why it would be doing this ?

bkman Posted November 12, 2005 Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 DHT operational overhead. Nuff said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosblade Posted November 12, 2005 Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 Yet DHT is disabled on those torrent, so it should not do anything on those. Unless im misunderstanding steve and he means a global value of 1-3kB/s, which is likely to be DHT annoucements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkman Posted November 12, 2005 Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 Doesn't matter. Just being connected to the DHT results in operational overhead. Disable it globally in the preferences if you don't want this.Not 'nuff said after all.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
