high overhead

[azaah]

hi, just curious what sort of overhead you guys get when you're not downloading anything and only seeding? I have about 40 inactive (seeding only) torrents (of which only 2 are actively seeding), but even when i'm not actively downloading it says my download rate is 7kB/s – isn't this a bit too much for just overhead?

tried searching and reading the FAQ but it seems the general overhead shouldn't be more than about 1kB/s? (which is what i've only ever remembered getting, until i just noticed this today)

I should mention that peer exchange/dht options are all disabled, global connections are 100 and connected peers/torrent are 30. Also, none of the individual seeding only torrents have a "download speed" of any more that 0.6kB/s, and even when I add all of the 0.1s together (it's only about 3/40 of the torrents that show any active overhead download) it still doesn't sum up to around that 7-8kB/s

running version 1.8.4 on windows 7 64bit professional

edit: how's this for something strange even when i stop all the torrents utorrent is still reporting a download speed of 4.1kB/s, and 2.0kB/s upload

Have you changed any advanced uTorrent settings from default values? (* next to changed ones)

Do you have any RSS feeds?

Do you have lots of incoming connections?

Do you see "Disconnect: Can't sync DH3" anywhere in uTorrent's Logger?

hey thanks for the reply, i don't have any different advanced utorrent settings, rrs feeds and i dont appear to have any more incoming connections than usual. no rrs feeds. only thing i see in the logger is "IPv6 is installed, got toredo address"

Enable more options (all but "verbose" ones) in Logger (right-click in that window to do so...)

I'm pretty sure that's Teredo, not toredo.

my bad i've enabled all the options, what am i looking out for? how many incoming connections is considered unusually high?
