Switeck Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 BitTorrent is a file SHARING protocol. You need to use something else for file leeching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neronut Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 I have just noticed there is a new clock icon in the RSS feed viewer. What does this mean? The normal RSS icon is also there below it.Edit: I was using Build 13827 and noticed that the download meter was nonsensical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troller Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 I dont know what build was magnus33 talking about because the 13582 build has overhead not only me see it that way but then again I'm looking forward on trying the next one!

rafi Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Neronut: it marks releases published in the last 24 hours. This was available in the previous RSS style view. BTW, I found three issues on this preliminary test-build, that does seem to fix/improve the issue with obeying of the upload limit :* all download limits do not work properly* RSS view clears sometimes when selecting "all feeds" and double-clicking a release (to download). The focus on "all feed" - vanishes.* handling/downloading from more than 150-200 peers (2 torrents) - feels like degrading the speed performance.

moogly Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 It's not a new stable build, it's the alpha 1.9.Look at the first post if you want to dwl & test it. Only for testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intrnlflme Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Yeah I have used the 1.9 alpha and then gone back to 1.8.1 while I wait to try the next alpha...I was led to believe by reading the few posts above that the next alpha was realeased??

magnus33 Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Build 13879 has most of the issues fixed from what i can tell at first glance.Down side is speeds although stable seem to cap out around 100 to 130 when they should be maxing out a conection.No cpu spikingNo overload on connectionNo crashing yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troller Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 The overhead is gone! thank you! However I do not understand why do i have 40k download on an already finished torrent! (upload rate was around 300k on that torrent) and sometimes my download skyrockets to 20 megabit (max) then in a splitsecond it goes back on idle. But overall the client eats less cpu, and transfer rates increased dramatically for me compared to the last version! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 problem #1:download speed limit bug (already reported...) example:max DL speed - ~180K. UL limit: 12K (tested with OpenOffice) calc_overhead= true max peers 200/1000 per-torrent/global1 torrent DL - 100(1600)/10(700) s/p - ~ 130-140KB (below but close to the maximum possible) when we just add one more torrents - it drops: #1 - ~90K 90(1600)/16(700)#2 - ~20K 80(1600)/20(600)stopping #2 - and #1 goes back to ~130-140K. The thing is - we should not see any effect of #2 on #1...Edit:problem #2:setup double-click to perform download command- select "all feeds"- doble-click//download some releases. Once in a while - the selection-highlight from all-feeds - vanishes and the view is being totally clears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ver Greeneyes Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Unfortunately the new build still kills my internet connection. I didn't see anything specifically related to this in the changelog, but above comments had made me hopeful. Back to 1.8.1 again.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 are you sure you have you upload rate reasonably limited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSMAN Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 that queue bug is still there. i have about 200 torrents seeding and 50 of them are seeding and the rest are stuck at queued seeding. it works fine on 1.8.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivilis Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 And 100% CPU usage with 20 active torrents. With version 1.8.1 CPU usage < 5% on that torrents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Still, a problem with the Upload limiter. it seems it is unstable , and deviates much from the set value. In my case - I set it to 12K (out of the poor 22K I have...). With two torrents and about 250 connected peers , I measure it externally, it's low values starting at about 15-16K and it deviates from time to time to 19-22K . It seems it's not flat/stable enough and can sill slow down the other Internet activities. Also The overhear can be tuned a bit higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rafi Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 hmm... I'll need to re-install it. I'll tryhere you go (capture + screen shot): http://www.zshare.net/download/53075624ce6b22ca/Edit:.. and my conclusions:w/o PEX:* with "5" - TCP only - it behaves well. under the UL limit and does not exceed the limit much also on netmeter (~1K)http://img523.imageshack.us/my.php?image=tcp20081221220136hi3.jpg* with "10" - uTP only - speed oscillate a bit more around the limit, and gets 2-4K more on netmeter (@130K DL). Some math adjustments - might help.http://img49.imageshack.us/my.php?image=utp20081221220610ao0.jpgputting PEX on:in my case of low UL in my connection (22K) - it definitely kills the speed (@ 250 peers) when peeking the netmeter UL to this limit and cutting off the DL speed.http://img244.imageshack.us/my.php?image=pexutp20081221221913od9.jpgFYI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
