kuwaiticrud Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Just when I thought the world couldn't get any better, my friend showed me how to use RSS feeds to automate my downloads and I was in heaven. However, the last two days, my torrents came to a screeching halt. So, I created an account and checked out the stickies to see if my issue could be resolved. The one I followed was this one:http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=15992#p258231The steps I tried were the following:# Try lowering net.max_halfopen to 4 or lower (Can be found in Preferences > Advanced)# Try lowering bt.connect_speed to 10 or lower (Can be found in Preferences > Advanced)# Try disabling IP resolving in the Peers tab's context menu# Try disabling DHT (Can be found in Preferences > BitTorrent)As soon as I disabled DHT, my torrents' seeds went from 1 to double digits. My download speeds picked up where they should be.I am guessing that by disabling DHT that it helped cure my seedless torrent issue. My question is, should I go back and change the settings from the first two steps? If so, what should they be set at? In my hurry, I forgot to write down the numbers.

DreadWingKnight Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Just leave them. Your system will work better with the lower values. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 You'll likely see additional speed gains trying the 2nd link in my signature too...just make sure you're using upload settings low enough that uTorrent can sustain the max upload speed limit you choose!
