idaniel Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 I tried to find some content about this issue, including this forum, but I got no answers to my problem. Sorry if somebody else post something like me in the past.I'm a happy user of utorrent and I don't need to explain everybody why I'm using utorrent. I just like it very much.I'm a coder developer using Visual Studio 2005 ASP .net 2.0 and I'm having a performance problem between then. I don't know why but when I open then at the same time my development server (webserver emulation) slows down. My pc acts like a 486 dx2 66Mhz (LOL).I have a core 2 duo 2.0Ghz and 2 GBytes of RAM and for sure it's not the problem!Thank you very much If somebody know how to solve this problem and know how to help me. I don't wanna stop using utorrent...Tks again and sorry for my bad english.Daniel (Brazil) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Check your RAM and CPU usage when everything acts slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idaniel Posted July 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Running at the same time:RAM: 1127 MBCPU ~ 8%After close utorrent:RAM: 1120 MBCPU~ 4%Another informations I'm seeing right now:- When utorrent isn't downloading the problem doesn't appear;- Even the download speed is low (like 10KB/s) the performance fall;- Visual Studio Development Server is the unique afected by this issue;- I was testing with IE and Firefox both with the same behavior;Do you heard something like that before?Tks in advance,Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 You probably just don't have enough RAM, so Windows is swapping things to disk. Try closing some stuff.You can post a HijackThis log too, if you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 1st and 2nd links in my signature...at least to rule out what's NOT causing the problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Dual-Core optimizer? Disk problems? In addition to the SOPs Switeck mentioned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idaniel Posted July 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Everything runs fine. I have 2GB of RAM. It´s a Dell D630 core 2 duo 2.0 Ghz.The problem only occours when I open utorrent while I'm using the development server of VS 2005 AND the development server is the unique application affected.Example:When a refresh a dynamic page (aspx) it takes less than 10ms. With utorrent oppened it takes 10 seconds, sometimes 15 seconds.I already check all this hardware stuff. My notebook is really good and everything runs fast but utorrent versus development server of VS 2005 NOT.I'll try to find another torrent application while I don't meet the correct solution.Tks everybody again... if somedy know what the F is happening in this case please let me know.Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 If you haven't, get uTorrent v1.8 and try disabling Windows caching of reads and writes for uTorrent traffic. Let uTorrent cache instead...maybe 64-100 MB worth. (32 MB is default max.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Check Start > Run > devmgmt.mscAre any of your IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers' connected devices in PIO mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idaniel Posted July 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Switeck: I tried but nothing better... Ultima: I check that and I found the controllers configured to DMA preffered using automatic setting. It can be related?Tks!Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Erm, whoops, should've made myself clearer. Current transfer mode, not preferred transfer mode. DMA is fine, but PIO isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
