µtorrent 2.x and superseed


Mandrax

Using Azureus 4.4.0.0 - so please don't kill me for that. Just wanted to pass some observation :

Recently, being in initial seeding phase my upload speed turned out to be comparably low and compared to overall number of leechers only a few in my queue. Suspected my provider playing tricks, which turned out not to be the case.

During initial seeding use normally superseed mode (Azureus wording – believe its called initial seeding with µtorrent ) and watching the queue over a longer time (boring...) it turned out that users with µtorrent 2.x enter the queue, connection gets established, a chunk is reserved at that time for the respective IP address and leave after a couple of seconds later. Result, my queue is small despite enough leechers being around and the benefit of superseed mode is undermined.

This does not occur with older µtorrent versions and also not with 2.x when in normal seeding mode.

Additionally no other clients as Azureus, Bittornado, Mainline, transmission have above issue

Anybody experienced something similar?
