DreadWingKnight Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 What are your disk cache settings and what internet security software do you have installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xencored Posted February 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 What are your disk cache settings and what internet security software do you have installed?Hello Dreanwingknight, I have to set the Cache size to 1800 or I just get 100% disk overload all the timeAlso if I have more than 5 Torrents on the go It crashes everytime.I also have 'increase automatic cache size when cache thrashing tickedCheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 I have to set the Cache size to 1800There's most of your problem.uTorrent is still a 32-bit process, and WILL crash the INSTANT it exceeds 2048MByte of RAM usage.You also haven't told us what version and build of uTorrent you're using.

DreadWingKnight Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Figure out what it is that is causing the disk to not be able to keep up.Also, try the current versions of uTorrent (including alphas and betas) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreadWingKnight Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Having preallocate turned on with "no zero" turned off can cause this issue.I use no zero on, preallocate off, and sparse on and don't get overload most of the time (except for the REALLY buggy builds) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciaobaby Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Well at the minute mate I am on bittorrent (Was testing to see if it did the same which it does)bit torrent 7.8 (build 29112) (32-bit)BitTorrent clients from ver 6 on are built on the uTorrent core.Bah I am still getting Disk Overload no matter the Cache sizeWhat type of drive are you using?

Xencored Posted February 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Ive used other drives and get the same problem ciaobabyatm its 2x 2TB hitachi drives in a raid 0 using Intel Controller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted February 19, 2013 Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 So a NAS unit then. External drives are always prone to overloading simply because the interface (which is the bit that gets overloaded) is much slower than internal drives.With that, increasing the cache size will potentially worsen the problem because there will be more data sent to the drive each time, yes you can coalesce write etc etc. But the fundamental problem is writing and/or reading data FASTER than the interface can handle.100 Mbit network drives, USB 1.1/2.0, SSDs, "flash" drives and the like will overload. Gigabit NAS, eSATA, Firewire, USB 3.0 and the Mac "Thunderbolt" interface have much faster data transfer speeds so are probably not going to suffer from the issue unless your client is hitting VERY high transfer rates.

It's a raid controller build into the motherboard via sata6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
