cdzo72 Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 Since installing uTorrent 1.7.1 stable, each time I restart my computer for whatever reason, when I start uTorrent, it goes through the long process of checking all the torrents that I have running. I am shutting uTorrent down properly, not just restarting the computer, I actually exit from uTorrent. I have even tried stopping the torrents, waiting for any disk activity to stop that had anything to do with uTorrent and then exiting, but still have had the same problem. As I said, this was not an issue with the 1.7 beta that I was using, and I haven't changed any settings since installing 1.7.1 stable. Please help as this is REALLY annoying!

Firon Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 You may need to turn on bt.graceful_shutdown. Be warned it may take a lot longer to shut down, because it tries to finish -everything- before shutting down, instead of just giving up after 15 seconds.

cdzo72 Posted July 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 After posting my original problem, I found another post with a similar problem and tried it but to no avail. I also notice that it is taking MUCH longer than it used to do the checking for each torrent. It used to run along pretty fast, now only 1/10 of a percent every 2 seconds, which is only about a fourth of as fast as it used to do it when I still had the 1.7. beta installed.

Firon Posted July 19, 2007 Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 Do you have an AV app?And the speed depends on fragmentation and the filesize of the torrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdzo72 Posted July 19, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2007 only thing that i am using is the windows firewall, no antivirus or ad blocking programs at all installed. only torrents that i download are 4+ gigs for quality of the video.
