Pyrocks Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Heya all,I've been using uTorrent for a few weeks now, and in the last week I've noticed a great increase in Wasted data (but there are no Hashfails) on all of the torrents. I.E - opened a new torrent, downloaded only 10m and already 1.5m wasted (torrent has been working for less than an hour). For torrents that had been working for a few days I can get 50m or more of wasted data.Is this normal?Is there anyting I can do to reduce this number?PS: I'm on a 1.5Mbit/128Kbit ADSL.thanks.

ICleolion Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 From FAQ: - Discarded data is data that's sent to you by a peer that your client didn't want.Decreasing the number of peers you are connected to may decrease this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 It's normal with slow torrents, and especially when dealing with BC peers.Use the beta, it should reduce wasted data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
