DreadWingKnight Posted September 13, 2008 Report Share Posted September 13, 2008 In task manager, is the utorrent.exe process the process actually eating the ram? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 using gigabit is also fun ^^ why is there no gigabit setting in speed guide? it stoped at 100mbitEven if your download speed is potentially 1 gigabit/second...is your UPLOAD also the same?

Xaero Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 Hey, I never understood what "Bad News" moderator meant. I have read quite a few of your posts but didn't make sense to me.Other the other hand "I never claimed to be nice" - Totally understandable. I wouldn't be able to think of anything better ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmeare Posted September 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 yes gigabit is also upstream max ive hit it 70MB/s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted September 15, 2008 Report Share Posted September 15, 2008 HA! 70 MB/sec is not even 60% of 1 gigabit/second. So you'd need to build uTorrent settings based on that...were you to use generic 1 gigabit/second upload settings, you'd possibly have problems.Take the 100 megabits/second upload settings...and raise upload speed to 70000 KB/second. That's probably good enough. Raise max active and download torrents too if you want...or even upload slots. But global connection max is already extreme in Speed Guide (CTRL+G) at 1000. Lots of networking hardware and software WILL have trouble with that amount!"Bad News" is more like the messenger/bearer of bad news. I often post on topics I don't see other replies on just to tell them they're screwed. Whether they're hopelessly firewalled (Satellite/wireless ISPs), hopeless for torrents period (colleges/universities blocking BitTorrent), or that their ISP is particularly hostile to BitTorrent. Or their upload/uTorrent settings are set too high. Or something else that ...although helpful... they may not want to hear.I usually don't sugar coat it either:"Your ISP hates you..." (because they are completely hostile towards BitTorrent traffic and BitTorrent users.)The other possible meanings of "bad news"...well, I don't consider myself terribly lucky or unlucky -- but others have described my presence around them as "unlucky".And if I really don't like someone on this forum...I quit arguing...their posts may simply disappear. Done that to a few spammers and people who were particularly insulting. Even deleted a post or 2 by mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screenwiper Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Re: memory and a whole lot off it taskmgr say it is svchost.exe but when i close utorrent memmroy usages goes down to 20% again from 99% when ever its runningProblem appears only in WindowsVista, but never WindowsXP, and not only uTorrent may cause such bug. In fact just system's cache's capacity limits has been reseted and that's why cache extends untill ALL free RAM. After reboot task manager indicates decreasing of free RAM utill it will equal ZERO. Of course system's performance goes down. Exiting and even uninstalling uTorrent will not take effect.To solve the problem it's needed fix maximum system's cache limit (set it far less than you have RAM) to prevent it's extension to all free memory.Where to find this option? System's Registry, Performance & Cache settings? Unfortunately i couldn't to learn it and hope to Your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thelittlefire Posted September 22, 2008 Report Share Posted September 22, 2008 Did you go there? There are options at the bottom to bypass Windows Disk Cacheing which is usually to blame when RAM simply seems to "disappear" when it's not being used by a process.
