Upload allocation

[Bartmole]

When running two or more torrent's in utorrent, is it possible to set the upload speed you wish each to max at? Thank's

Elaborate? The sum of the upload rates must be your connection's maximum upload rate -- at most.

Thank's for the reply. Ok, let's say I have two torrent's open from different site's and I want to ensure that both of them can only upload to a set maximum. My U/L max at 80% is around 60 KB. Can I divide that 60 KB between the two, say 45 Kb-15 KB, so that one get's more upload then the other. In my case, it's to try and resolve a crappy ratio on one site while the other has a good ratio.

Yes. Double click the torrent or right click -> properties.

...But it's not a good idea if you're running only those 2 torrents!

If you want 1 of the 2 torrents to upload faster, set the lower torrent's max upload speed to 15 KB/sec and leave the other one "unlimited" up to the global upload max.

Otherwise, with 1 set to 45 KB/sec and the other set to 15 KB/sec...if either one fails to reach their max then you won't be uploading at your global max of 60 KB/sec.

You can also set torrents' priority to LOW or HIGH so they get less or more upload than average. A problem with that can be if the seeding torrent you want to go slow gets LOTS of peers while the one you want to go fast gets only 0-1 peer -- then the "slow" one will almost always be uploading faster.
