adamstru Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 I'm on 1M/1M DSL and I just started seeding a 1 GB torrent. Due to the large size and rareness of the files, I'd like to allocate a constant 50 KB/s for its upload so that no other torrent I'm seeding or downloading could make its speed drop under this. I presume this isn't currently possible?Edit: I already have the 1 GB torrent's priority set to 'High' and all others' priorities set to 'Low'. It didn't help very much, maybe because I'm seeding quite a large number of torrents at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 Set that 1 torrent to 50 KB/sec upload speed.Stop some torrents if that's not enough... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamstru Posted February 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2009 Sorry if I forgot to say thanks for an awesome BT client... :| Do you mean setting the upload limit to 50 KB/s will guarantee at least that amount of upstream to the torrent, similar to NetLimiter's "grant" function? I think this would be an important addition to цTorrent as having to manually manage your torrents in order to ensure one important torrent's upstream is hardly anyone's idea of fun.

Firon Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 No, it won't guarantee that much upload. And micromanaging upload like this isn't something you're supposed to be doing in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamstru Posted February 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 I don't see anything wrong in giving a specific rare torrent clear priority over the ones that are already well-seeded. I'm currently uploading a 2,76 GB torrent to one peer as the only seeder and since I usually don't run my computer 24/7, I'd like it the upload to finish soon as it's mean just to leave the peer empty-handed. Could there be an option to amplify the priorities a bit? Or maybe some sort of rare torrent priorization could be added?Currently I have to micromanage by setting individual torrents upload limits. When the rare torrent downloader disconnects, the limited torrents are going to stay capped and my full upstream won't be used. A grant-based cap would get rid of this problem.

toph Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 yeah, I miss this nice feature - having a minimum rate setting in addition to the maximum, both for ul/dl. And of course there is nothing wrong with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
