cprudhom Posted November 8, 2011 Report Posted November 8, 2011 Hi all,I've just update uTorrent from 1.0.2 to 1.5.11, and every operations are very slow: eg. clicking from All menu to Completed menu takes more than 1 sec.And uTorrent occupies a lot of processing time...Have you ever heard of this?Thank you,
vadimt Posted November 9, 2011 Report Posted November 9, 2011 Hi,This is very strange behavior for this build of utorrent. I can suggest you to remove utorrent from your Mac and install it again.Thanks, Vadim (Bittorrent QA engineer).
rom1g Posted November 16, 2011 Report Posted November 16, 2011 Hi,I've the same problem after upgrade 1.5.11 on OSX 10.6.8, utorrent UI lag 2/3 sec. after clicking menu, torrent list, stats, scrollbar... The %CPU is between 70% and 100.6%.I've removed utorrent and install it again and I've the same problem. I like utorrent but this is the worst version of this nice software I've never had thx for your work and your help !
vadimt Posted November 16, 2011 Report Posted November 16, 2011 Hi, We know about the problem with CPU and it will be fixed in the next release.Thanks, Vadim.
rom1g Posted November 16, 2011 Report Posted November 16, 2011 Ok thx,Can you say me how many time before this update (approximately) ? Because i'm using another torrent client in the meanwhile but i prefer utorrent.thx.
antair Posted December 17, 2011 Report Posted December 17, 2011 The problem is still not fixed in 1.5.12
antair Posted December 17, 2011 Report Posted December 17, 2011 Just to compare - 1.0.3 23545 works perfectly.
tonyrh Posted December 18, 2011 Report Posted December 18, 2011 1.5.12 is running so slow that it's barely usable here...MacBook Pro late 2008 2.4GHz/4GB on OS X 10.7.2
AnnSnark Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 Do you have autoload torrents option on?
antair Posted January 2, 2012 Report Posted January 2, 2012 Turned off. Still 30-60 % of CPU load. 10-15 % in 1.0.3 while downloading the same torrents.
lukewd Posted January 22, 2012 Report Posted January 22, 2012 OK, I have been having the same problem since a few versions back. Finally figured it out.My downloads folder where .torrent files download to is large, and had over 1200 files in it.My utorrent was set to autoload .torrent files from this directory.I then cleared out my downloads forlder so it was completely empty, and utorrent instantly started working as quickly as it normally should.So it seems, if you have atuoload torrents set to "on", then you need to make sure the directly you are loading those torrents from does not have many files in it.utorrent team, is there any way you could tweak utorrent itself to prevent this slowdown in the app in the event that the folder we autoload torrents from is particularly full?
lukewd Posted January 22, 2012 Report Posted January 22, 2012 on further inspection, clearing out the autoload directory helps about 80%. Disabling autoload entirely fixes the problem 100%... slightly annoying tho that i have to turn this off now. very useful feature!
DreadWingKnight Posted January 22, 2012 Report Posted January 22, 2012 Use a better location for your autoload directory.
lukewd Posted January 22, 2012 Report Posted January 22, 2012 Use a better location for your autoload directory.that is not really a convenient workaround. i would assume most people autoload from their browsers default download directory. this means if you have utorrent open, all you have to do is click the torrent file name, which the browser will download to its own download directory, and then utorrent will pick this up and begin processing. leaving minimal steps for the user.
DreadWingKnight Posted January 22, 2012 Report Posted January 22, 2012 i would assume most people autoload from their browsers default download directory.Most people have .torrents associated with their client from their browser in such a way that autoload is useless.
lukewd Posted January 22, 2012 Report Posted January 22, 2012 Most people have .torrents associated with their client from their browser in such a way that autoload is useless.Yes that sounds much better. How do you this in chrome for mac?
DreadWingKnight Posted January 22, 2012 Report Posted January 22, 2012 Pretty sure it's done in the options.http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=47b2e2f2bd84426c&hl=en
