Ultima Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 Overhead. To communicate with other peers, you need to download protocol messages from them, and send (upload) protocol messages back.http://www.utorrent.com/faq.php#Why_does_it_show_download_speed_when_seeding.3F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted August 28, 2008 Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 DHT network, if connected, uses some bandwidth.If you disable that, then the only up+down bandwidth used is from old peers+seeds retrying your ip from previous torrents you had running. And even those should quiet down after a couple days...to maybe 1 every 1-5 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
