zyzko Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 Hi,After upgrading to 3.3 build 29544 "disk overloaded 100%" has stuck once again as a constant show-stopper. Windows Resource Monitor shows that there are no actual disk writes or reads going on, and the only way to stop uTorrent is to kill the process (and after that of course a re-check ensues, and download hopefully resumes).This appeared after the 3.3 upgrade, before that everything worked fine (on network drives the wait to start a torrent was bigger, but it was ok, now it just stucks at 100% overload randomly even when the torrent is 90% through and allocation of disk space should not slow things down + the interface freezes at random times...).

Artyom K. Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 Same here. Every time I add a new torrent I get 100% disk overload, I kill the process, start Utorrent again, it makes hash check and downloading starts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheShanMan Posted April 27, 2013 Report Share Posted April 27, 2013 I reverted back to 3.2.2 a while ago because of this problem in 3.3 and I'm not going to upgrade until I see a build that has been out for a while which doesn't have reports like this one. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaeron Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 This is a problem they haven't even acknowledged yet. It's really frustrating, it happens even when it's only ONE FILE, downloading at only less than 1 MB/sec. Eventually they'll realize it's not "People torrenting tons of illegal stuff" it's a problem on their end. Till then I hope to see many people complain about it.

Artyom K. Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 It's such a major bug, I'm dissapointed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 It's such a major bug, Then WHY am I not affected???? And I am running EXACTLY the same builds as you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 Then WHY am I not affected????And I am running EXACTLY the same builds as you can.Are you also running on the exact same OS? With the exact same HD/SDD? Downloading the exact same files? Running the exact same # of DL/seeding jobs? Having the exact same internet connection rates? With the same CPU horsepower ? Environment is an important factor, you know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted May 7, 2013 Report Share Posted May 7, 2013 I know that, it's the rest of them that thinks it is a "one size fits all" scenario.The point I was making is; if I can make it work correctly by tweaking the settings to suit; ....... so can anybody else. To mix a couple of metaphors/adages "A bad workman always blames the tools while a craftsman works with what he has available"Sure there are 'issues' with ver3, especially after the I/O routines were reworked, but if you are aware of them, you CAN avoid the situations that exacerbate those problems, I mean, for deity's sake it's not brain surgery and you are not in charge of a nuclear reactor, NOTHING is going to go Kaboom!! if you change the wrong thing.

zyzko Posted May 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Upgrading to build 29625 has solved this problem for me. Apparently there has been some modifications done to this although they are not visible in Changelog.Now though there is a new (less serious) problem of the UI freezing when torrents finish, the application cannot be brought to front (Windows (8, 64bit) reports it as non-responding) - but this has so far resolved itself by waiting...

truglx Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Getting this on build 29625. Seems to happen as soon as I try to move a torrent using the Advanced/Set Download Location option. Disk overloaded 100 %, even though no disk access is happening. Try to quit and it just sits there using CPU (but no heavy disk access) until I kill it.The torrent I try to move isn't moved either.

zyzko Posted May 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Ok, I should not have posted to the forum because right after that it happened to me on 29625 as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amirite Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 i get the same Disk Overloaded 100% message since v. 3.1. It's really annoying. Can you guys look into it and try and fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Can you look into trying 3.3.1, 3.3.2 and 3.4 first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amirite Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 I tried all versions from 2.0.4 to 3.4. I tried 2.0.4, 2.2.1, 3.0, 3.1, 3.3, 3.3.1, 3.3.2, 3.4. I get this error even on the ones that used to work fine. I reinstalled my windows, I made sure there's no compatibility issue. Only way I was able to run utorrent half-decent was to cap my download at 3 mb/s. If I don't do that my speed quickly jumps to about 11 mb/s and then the disk overload 100% error appears and also my memory usage on utorrent alone goes to like 1.3 GB.Try to look into this.
