Noodle Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 This isn't exactly a problem, but I'm just asking it anyways...The GUI refresh rate is the same if I set it at 500 or 1000 ms...Shouldn't it refresh twice a second for 500 ms?Cheers,Amogh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1c3d0g Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Uhm...it does refresh twice as fast as 1000ms...are you sure your PC can handle it though? :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudhurler Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Just for the info, is there some way of figuring out how much resource each feature consumes ?That would be a big help in the settings adjustments... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Most features don't consume much resources at all, actually. Maybe ipfilter might add some memory usage, and DHT might add some bandwidth overhead, but they're not that much more actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAbReAkA Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 using a lower value for the refresh rate increases the cpu time slightly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1c3d0g Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Hehe, I work with exactly the same PC at work. I haven't loaded µTorrent on it though (can't do that, boss says so), but it should be able to handle anything µTorrent can throw at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudhurler Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Then if you'll excuse me gentlemen I have some tweaking to do. BTW, wouldn't a gui update of 10000ms (the max value) result in something very dull and unstable ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Not unstable, but updates happen a lot less often. Useful if you want to take a quick glance at the torrent's status within the last 10 seconds, and then just hide the window. I doubt any computer that's half-decent would need anything higher than 1000ms anyway =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1c3d0g Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Ultima: agreed. Unless you're still stuck on a 486, I say leave it at the default 1000ms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
