Hi;

I'm using µTorrent till 1.5 version.I have downloaded and uploaded TB's with it.But, i have a problem with my home pc.I have the following rig ;

AMD Athlon 64 3700+ @ 2.8 GHZ [stock speed is 2.2 GHZ]

DFI LanParty UT NF4 SLI-ULTRA D

OCZ Titanium 2x1 GB DDR400 @ 500 MHZ

Seagate 320 GB SATA II NCQ 16 MB Cache

and others.

I'm using latest version of cFospeed (not beta).In Windows, my download and upload rates on maximum in good torrents, i mean working like it should. [200 kBps download // 40 kBps upload].But when i start to use my cpu much (games, video converting etc.) my speeds drop too much.I know it's about cpu but don't say to me "go & buy new one".Giving priority to µTorrent did not solved the problem, in fact affected in bad way which dropped the frame rates on game & speeds were same.I guessed it actually.Anyways, when i use the Azureus 3.0.4.0 or 3.0.3.5, everything is perfect.Speeds good, drops some frame rates but i don't care it just because i know how much cpu & ram combination it takes.Any recommendation will be appreciated.

Disk seeking for torrents is BAD.

If you have multiple hard drives try setting your torrent client to save to a different drive than you have your games running on.

Btw, it's not about the client. You said yourself this happened in multiple clients you tried.

I did not said it happened on multiple clients.Speed were good on all Azureus versions.I have one HDD, it has 2 partitions and im always downlading my torrents to "Archive" one which doesn't keep the games.

For NTFS filesystems Ctrl-P -> Advanced diskio.sparse_files can be set to TRUE. If you meant by too much earlier and you are getting 100% processor usage, you may also have conflicting software which is pushing the bottleneck above the hard drive and diskio controllers.

Oh sorry, i forgot to say.But i mean it on first post with saying "till".I'm always on newest version like now.I'm on 1.7.5.

Does this happen when cFosSpeed is not running? If not, then cFosSpeed is the "problem" (which really isn't a problem at all).

P2P is considered by many to be a background activity. You WANT the smaller packets and additional headroom when you are using the Network in the foreground -- so traffic shapers like cFosSpeed will do that for you.

One of the things that they do is to fragment the outgoing packets, so that your outgoing gaming and web-surfing packets can be placed next in line ahead of your P2P packets. Doing this does cut back on the throughput, but it doesn't shut it off.

Another thing it does is to slow down the rate of uploading. This prevents your modem or router from dropping packets and requiring repeats.

As soon as your priority packets get out, cFosSpeed will begin to nudge up the P2P rate toward full speed -- but it does so slowly as to keep P2P from introducing latency (high-ping) into your games.
