torrentcrazy Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 First, I'm on 170 KB/s Down, 28 KB/s Up connection as reported by speed tests.When I put in a value in the download limit, for example 100 or 130 KB/s, my downloads aren't slow, but they aren't as fast as usual and don't come close to the limit I set. When I put in 0(unlimited) for the download limit, my downloads take off like they were set free from some constraint. Does using a value in the download limit slot some how throttle your downloads and slow them down even if you aren't approaching the limit?*edit* This is amazing. One torrent went from like 12-15 KB/s to like 50 KB/s after I put 0(unlimited) in for the download limit. Before I changed it, my download speed wasn't even close to the limit I had set so there was no reason for the torrent to stay at 12-15 KB/s. This can't be just coincidence, I watched it for too long and then bam, the download increases soon after I put in 0(unlimited)*edit* Hot damn, they're all picking up. I'm downloading at 111 KB/s with 0(unlimited) download setting. I was barely cracking 50 with a 130 KB/s set as the download limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 What versions of µTorrent have you tested that experience this problem?Have you tried the latest beta...that lots of people are reporting vastly improved download speeds on?

torrentcrazy Posted January 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 Not the latest beta, I'm using 1.4.1 beta 405. I'm not really having speed problems, I just noticed a big jump when I set download to unlimited. The speed is fine otherwise, just even better with 0(unlimited).

Switeck Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 I think it may be a bug, not your fault at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torrentcrazy Posted January 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 Alright, I'll switch it back and forth a couple times and watch to see what happens. It's not really a big deal, this baby is skootin along just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosblade Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 We'll make sure ludde sees this. Probably the limiter just needs tweaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ludde Posted January 28, 2006 Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 Looks like a bug.. i'll see if I can fix it if I figure out _how_ to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
