swanksta Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 say i'm downloading a torrent. the speed is at 700KB/s. i start another torrent, and the 700KB/s is split between the two torrents. i've had speeds of over 1MB/s, yet µtorrent doesn't seem to download faster than 700KB/s. that's probably not an issue, and has to do with the torrent itself. however, i'd prefer the first torrent to take priority over the other torrents, or at least not suffer because other torrents are running. is there anything i can do to change this, beside limiting downloading to one torrent at a time? and beside changing bandwidth allocation for each torrent. why does one torrent suffer when other torrents are running? that's what i'd like to know.

Ultima Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Could be overhead issues, could be that something else is taking the remaining 300+ KiB/s of speed and µTorrent can't wrestle it away.What are your settings like in the Speed Guide?

swanksta Posted January 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 xx/768k. it's about 200kbits/s less than what my connection can upload.update: i figured the problem. connection must have been downgraded (i don't pay for it), because a speedtest that used to show >9000kb/s download is now around 5600kb/s=684KB/s.
