1.8 killing browser performance


fodor4

Recommended Posts

It is fixed [bandaide] with net half open at 4 and one or two other adjustments..

which still leaves me not at my optimum speed but my browser works..

When I get my new router and find out my final speed I will prolly reformat just to make 1.7 work again.

thanks guys =)

No Sir. I do not reach max upload even if I set it way past. fastest is about 200k and downloading doesnt go past 1mb.

I know its only my computer because my laptop with 1.7 hits 500k on the upload no problem. Same with my old raid drive. and both max out on the download..

I updated to the new beta. I set all settings to default. I changed my net half open to 4.

I downloaded http://releases.ubuntu.com/releases/8.04/ubuntu-8.04.1-desktop-i386.iso.torrent

I hit my 2.4mB/s behind my router without lagging my internet.

I read all these old posts and alot of posts on the internet about patching your tcp sys and net half open [to numbers of like 200] on all versions of windows except sp3.. nobody says anything..

"I set all settings to default."

Default settings are bad.

But I give up.

There's probably something obscure and different about your computer that only it has problems.

Whether it's a software firewall, virus, or media player indexing everything you're downloading...I haven't a clue at this point.

"Well fix it!

1st link in my signature."

this is sweet, nice response!

I too have this issue, have tried to "fix it!" Read these forums and guides, over and over.

You may not like it , but 1.8 is the issue. As soon as the dl speeds hit 30 browsing is nil. No matter what the settings.

If switeck is tired of trying to help people, maybe they should step down as moderator.

Go ahead, use our power and bann me, with responses like that , what helpful advice could I expect?

I would like to thank the people who DO work hard to help us lowly users.

Am I supposed to be PSYCHIC and just guess what is causing your problems?

My 1st link tell EXACTLY what we need to give you help.

It is very easy to overlook even obvious stuff if you're frustrated with it.

That's another reason to post what you've done here, even if it is a little embarrassing.

I'm having the same problem.

My browsing speeds are crippled when 1.8 is running. And even when I close the application. A restart is the only way to restore normality. Everything worked flawlessly with 1.7 and previously with Azureus.

My seeding and leeching speeds are fine.

My firewall and router settings haven't changed in years, so there's no reason for me to suspect them.

I'm running on a decent machine:

Sony Vaio VCG-RA828G

Dual P4's 3.6GHz

2MB RAM

I use Firefox 3.0.1 almost exclusively.

I have a 20Mb symmetrical connection, hence my traffic is measured in Terabytes (see my Demonoid profile).

Same problem over here. Fixed by downloading latest beta build 12183. My download speeds would easily max out, but when I have one torrent with less than 20 seeds and peers, I could not surf at all. Upload speed is limited to under half my maximum. Oh well, just a bug in the program.

Good thing utorrent has awesome staff and developers

It wasn't quite a bug with utorrent, more a combination of issues with the Windows networking stack and how some socket calls didn't behave the way we thought they did.

In any case, 12183 definitively has it fixed. utorrent will -never- exceed the half-open limit now.

utorrent will -never- exceed the half-open limit now.

More like uTorrent will never make more half open connections if it is over the limit.

uTorrent should only be over the limit if you reduce half open connection max below current half open connections active. And that will correct itself within typically less than half a minute.
