Version 0.9.1.1 has been released

[hl2run]

@firon

It works well for me

[powerdloader2]

The previous version 0.9.1.1 used up 100% of my CPU after about 2 minutes of use. The new version 0.9.1.2 works well for about the first two minutes also, however after instead of spiking my cpu usage to 100% on a consistent basis, it spikes to about 85% and then corrects this issue temporarily and then goes back to 85%. This cycle continued for the rest of my download. Will keep on trying and see if this trend continues. Let me know if you want more info.

[hl2run]

Damn, 100% after about an hour

[arvid]

@hl2run: could you take a sample of uTorrent when it's using too much CPU (100% preferably) and paste it somewhere?

to take a sample, go to activity monitor, select the application and press "sample" from the toolbar.

[blusprite]

Just testing the 0.9.1.2 RC. The unwanted port randomization on startup is still there, occasionally keeping the manual setting, but if it manages to keep it, on next restart it's always set to port 0, and then it's randomized again next time. The status light sometimes goes green even though the current port is not open when checking with the port checker page. No excessive CPU values so far after a half hour of work. CPU usage stays around 10% with close to a hundred torrents seeding simultaneously. Occasionally, it goes up to about 50 % and back to normal after 4-5 seconds, but it happens rarely. Multiple torrents are seeding and downloading, attaining same speeds as with 0.9.4, speed limiters are working.

Edit: Now CPU went up to 100% and stayed there for a while, here's a sample:

firon,

the new build, 0.9.1.2 RC, has dramatically increased how many seeds and peers I can connect to with multiple torrents running (and therefore, much higher speeds). kudos to the team on this build. however, the 100% cpu problem persists. utorrent will float at 6% cpu usage when downloading two torrents, and then spike to 97.4% - 100%, then go back down to 6%. i'll post a sample when I can.

100% CPU on a MacBook Alu 2.0G also here.

I downloaded the 0.9.1.2 build. It works great, thingy is green, downloading at full speed, nice! :-). I do sometimes have the CPU peak problem. Not a lot but I managed to get a sample: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/974111/Sample%20of%20uTorrent.txt

This sample was taken when cpu was between 80 - 90%

Keep up the good work!! :-)

[NoOneButMe]

That looks like its (yet another) 100% cpu problem, not the same as the one that was being hit in 0.9.1.1. But I could easily be wrong in that, since reading Sample logs is a pain :x

[noimbecile]

I am facing a wierd issue with 0.9.1.2 RC. The display in the window does not update at all. The percentage bars on the torrents as well as the details tabs remain at same value no matter what happens. Eg. when I open a torrent file, the torrent details always show 0% downloaded no matter how much it downloads. When I quit and restart uT, then the value being displayed is the percentage completed amount when utorrent started.

[jinglejingle]

I noticed that it actually takes 100% of only one of the cores, which is later being split between the two cores.

The activity meter usually shows 102-103%.

The same goes for 0.9.1.2 RC.

[NoOneButMe]

New 0.9.1.2 RC build for those of you interested in testing it out: http://download.utorrent.com/mac/uTorrent-Mac-15220.dmg

Its (hopefully) got a fix for the new 100% cpu issue. Would be awesome if it could be tested with lots of well seeded torrents running. Preferably kept open for 20 minutes minimum.

[blusprite]

Build 15220 crashes 10-20 minutes after launch. While it's loaded, there's no abnormal CPU usage (force-seeding over 200 torrents). It still doesn't keep the port number and it's randomized at launch, occasionally setting it to zero, but at least UPnP seems to be working now. The crash occurs without any notification, it just quits silently after a while. Here's the system log messages:

Can confirm 100% CPU usage, some times even 101% and 102%!

Was not able to record 100%, right now getting 96-99%:

UTorrent Version 0.9.1.1 (14940)

Also, some times after i quit UTorrent after 100% CPU usage, it resets my port to 0 (option to randomize port each start is disabled), happened already 4-6 times, after setting new port it sometimes not recognizes what i changed it, so i quit it again, and again till it recognizes port.

[ezmac1964]

RC 2 running with 40 torrents on a mac pro 4 cores....

60/70% cpu usage ( is on the good way )

downloading 180/200

uploading 22/27

[eshiku]

rc2 gave me a nice speed boost, everything is good about it. it's just that it's crash every few min :/

[ignas2526]

Just found about rc2, i completely cant change port!

Wan i first time started it port was set on 0, wan i tried to apply my port 10001 it told me "Listen Error". Now it shows me wrong port(11218) and tells me what "Connection working" that cant be 11218, all ports are closed except 10001, means only 10001 can be green, all others will be yellow or red. I think UTorrent somehow shows one port in Preferences, but in real he uses other port.

________

EDIT: Option to randomize port was not selected.

________

EDIT2: in rc1 i simply got always 96-102% CPU usage, now it jumps up and down, from 9% to 100%, but does not stay for to long on 100%...

________

EDIT3: UTorrent rc2 crashes periodically whiteout any error display.

UTorrent continues to show every time i start it new port in preferences, however it seems what in real he continues to use 10001 port...

[blusprite]

Connection is working because UPnP is functional in this version and it automatically instructs your router to open whatever port uTorrent uses. However, the actual port does indeed change, it doesn't stay the same as you suggest.

[ezmac1964]

well RC2 work quite fine ( can be better)..

RC2 time to time quits properly, and I've to restart it....

[mafoo]

the 9.1.1 and 9.1.2 releases both have a bug where the Incoming TCP Port is not being saved and set to 0 every time the app launches.

This is probably causing all the connection errors people are having.

A current work around is to have the "radomise port during launch" option set - but for people who need a static routing table this isn't going to help.

[ezmac1964]

maybe this will help:

reset your router.. set DMZ for your mac.. activate uPnP

install 0.9.1.2RC2 run it for a while

reinstall 0.9.1.1 run for 5 minutes orf lesss

reinstall RC2....

now µtorrent will run better...

at all 40% cpu usage / 275 kb download /30 kb upload / more than 40 torrents working

ADSL 6MB/320KB

[FliesLikeABrick]

RC2 crashes uncleanly for me every 45 minutes or so (sometimes more, sometimes less).

My incoming port also sometimes randomizes itself even though I don't want it to. I have a specific port forwarded, so incoming connections break whenever the port randomizes.

[ezmac1964]

let mie try it this late night to see if that happens to me too.

if you allow DMZ in your router ( all ports open) µtorrent works fine ever if it change port time to time (force to randomize now))

[powerdloader2]

I hope they havnt given up... even though it doesnt work well i still get faster speeds than anything else out there...but then it crashes haha. Quick question...since utorrent is owned by bittorrent, should we assume that the bittorrent client is the best they will be able to come up with?
