living420 Posted December 20, 2010 Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 I had a torrent sitting, going really slow for a while. The ETA had it at a reasonable 4 weeks. It's a 2.9GB file and it was just trickling along, so it might have been mathmatically accurate. I didn't think about it. But then, the speed jumped. It got up to 400, 500, 800kB/s. Maxing out my bandwidth. But the ETA continued to climb. I understand that it's doing some averaging and doesn't change estimates on a dime, but the ETA climbed from 4 weeks up to 5 even as the speed increased.I just switched from Vuze and I'm very used to seeing the ETA come down quite quickly. In my head Down speed and ETA have a see-saw type relationship. Seeing the speed and the ETA both going up at the same time seemed so obviously back asswards, I just thought I should tell somebody. Thought it might be a glitch, but again I'm new here....maybe your algorithm just sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
