roberto.tomas Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Correct me if I'm wrong but the download check at start up does one torrent at a time because it does not multitask? It would be nice to get it to check all of them at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Shut uTorrent down cleanly and it will not need to run rechecking at startup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roberto.tomas Posted May 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Shut uTorrent down cleanly and it will not need to run rechecking at startup.This is not true. I shut it down cleanly every time.However, I just went to check. Since version 3.3 apparently, it now does not correctly show the systray icon after it has shut down, and stays running in the background. I guess this is a bug in addition to a feature request.

ciaobaby Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 It takes TIME for it to close all processes, the systray icon going does NOT mean it has closed everything, YOU have to wait until it completes the close down operations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should change that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 Well that is just poor design.No it's necessity. You cannot simply abandon a process that may be writing data fom cache to disc and expect it not to corrupt the data already on the disc, or would you prefer that the WHOLE of the data that is already downloaded, was deleted and the download start from scratch again?

ciaobaby Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 They are not called "background processes" because nobody could come up with a better name you know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted May 14, 2013 Report Share Posted May 14, 2013 And "multitasking torrent checks" won't help, because it's not the processor that's the limiter for the checks. It's the hard drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
