But when i use utorrent it eats my RAM. once i start utorrent it goes from 800Mb in use to 3.5GB ram. and my computer goes into SLOWPOKE mode and get's all laggy. this didint happen when i had a DSL connection.Can anyone help me as to why this happens and how to fix it ? i use Utorrent µTorrent 1.8(build 11200) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 Did you bypass the windows disk cache in the cache settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 In the disk cache settings, disable windows caching of both reads and writes.Why?Because windows' disk caching system is stupid half of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 Also, 100mbit has a theoretical max of 12.5MB/s (and in practice, is about 11 or less). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
