frixer Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Hi guys I have a couple of questions regarding this setting.1) Even is this is set to the default value of 8 I see speed increases when switching from a normal tcpip.sys in vista to a patched one allowing more half open connections. How is it possible? Is the limit from utorrent not enforced?2) Does anyone have an idea on how long a half open connections lasts because patching the tcpip.sys in vista is a big pain compared to XP3) What are your experiences with patching the tcpip.sys file. Does it make a big impact on your download settings?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 1.8 exceeds the half-open limit you set due to some unexpected behavior in the Windows networking stack (thanks, MS). You can upgrade to 1.8.1 12024 to resolve that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frixer Posted August 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Firon, how much does it exceed the set limit by? Indefinitely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted August 29, 2008 Report Share Posted August 29, 2008 Depends on your setup. Sometimes it might be only a low amount and only on occasion, other times it might result in the app completely being unable to create new connections.
