Mancubus Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Hello. I have a problem with choosing and setting out uTorrent for a stable high-speed downloading or uploading. When I say high-speed, I mean like about +40 MB/s (almost 400 Mbps). I've tried uTorrent 3.3, but there where problems with cache (fixed it with increasing up to 1800), and also some strange things like no downloading torrent at all, or infinite allocating. Afterwards I've downgraded to 2.2.1, and problems described earlier disappeared, but new have arised (UI hangs out when at high-speed). Now I'm using 2.0.4, it's a bit better, but still freezes a bit, although not as much the 2.2.1. Any ideas? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciaobaby Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 fixed it with increasing up to 1800 Using a 2GB cache is likely to cause more problems than it solves.Now I'm using 2.0.4, And therefore are NOT supported at this forum.http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=721470#p721470Read the penultimate item.

Mancubus Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Using a 2GB cache is likely to cause more problems than it solves.So what settings shall I use?And therefore are NOT supported at this forum.And? I've been using 3.3 before downgrading, read carefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mancubus Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 I can easily switch back to 3.X, but give me an advice how to fix my problem. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 step 1> try 3.3.1, 3.3.2 or 3.4Step 2> DO NOT TRY TO USE HIGH DISK CACHE SETTINGS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mancubus Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 step 1> try 3.3.1, 3.3.2 or 3.43.4Step 2> DO NOT TRY TO USE HIGH DISK CACHE SETTINGS.1024 is optimal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 No. Even smaller.I'm pushing it if I use as large as 128. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mancubus Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 lolwhatAdded 10 torrents in 3.4, for testing, 1024 cache is not enough, disk overloaded. Pushed it up to 1800, speed increase, but uTorrent crashed Wow, and it's using 1.8 GB of RAM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ciaobaby Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Wow, and it's using 1.8 GB of RAMWhich bit of increasing the cache will also increase the memory used is it that you don't understand??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mancubus Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 At ANY point did you follow youtube setup guides to configure uTorrent?What guides?I have my own settings:http://imageshack.us/a/img18/7774/imxo.jpghttp://imageshack.us/a/img507/7696/qllu.jpghttp://imageshack.us/a/img203/5092/bw1m.jpgOnly with them I can achieve this speed:http://imageshack.us/a/img811/8228/qd9x.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Describing your setting in order:Stupidly setSort of bad (outgoing encryption to enabled gets you best results)REALLY stupidly set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mancubus Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=58404According to those indications, why I would limit upload speed to 10 MB/s if there is 100 Mbps? ))))Also,Using settings too high for your connection can overload and/or slow down your computer, network, and connection...and may even severely impact the local segment of your ISP!Capt. Obvious, using old P4 or whatever..Still, thanks for the link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Capt. Obvious, using old P4 or whatever..Yeah, most residential routers are WORSE than the "old p4" you're referring to.According to those indications, why I would limit upload speed to 10 MB/s if there is 100 Mbps? ))))Because 100mbit is only about 11mbyte/sec. You need the extra room for protocol overhead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mancubus Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Yeah, most residential routers are WORSE than the "old p4" you're referring to.I'm not talking about entry-level routers.What about HG8245? My ISP installed it, but there is little information about it's performance (CPU, RAM).Because 100mbit is only about 11mbyte/sec. You need the extra room for protocol overhead.By default, ISP already takes a portion of speed for service, because pure 100 Mbps is about 12.500 KB/s.

DreadWingKnight Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 What about HG8245? My ISP installed it, but there is little information about it's performance (CPU, RAM).I had a hard time finding out about that specific model router.Although the manufacturer's devices have their own problems.

Mancubus Posted July 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 Still, my problem is not resolved. I believe there is something with cache settings. I got overloaded on 1024, so I have to increase up to 1800, but uTorrent hangs up on this value when speed is max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciaobaby Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 What is it that you don't quite get about bigger cache sizes making the overloading WORSE???To reduce drive interface overloading, you need to write LESS data volume, MORE FREQUENTLY to the interface.

Mancubus Posted July 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 Played around with the settings on 1.8.2, seems to be I've found a workaround. Now downloading multiple torrents with 46 MB/s, no persistent overloading issue, and no UI hang-ups at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
