Lamplighter Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 i am downloading something via utorrent and i noticed that there are 13 seeds with 100% of the data, and a whole bunch with less. i am only grabing data from those with less. not one of the 13 seeds with 100% is seeding to mewhy is that ?i have used uTorrent for years, but i have never really notice that before. (probably never looked before either ....)Any clues would be helpful. cheers.Lamp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Because the ones with less are trying to establish a trade relationship with you.Seeds have no incentive to upload to you at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switeck Posted February 23, 2010 Report Share Posted February 23, 2010 A seed is far more likely to be connected to more peers than you but uploading to only 0-4 peers at a time. Although a seed may change what peers it's uploading to, often it doesn't "reach" all of them...even 2 hours later there may be peers that got nothing from the seed.Seeding Torrent Max connections limithttp://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=47523 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
