zyme Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 This same Display bug happens in 40265 (See attached capture).Happens whenever gui.Tall_Category_list is set to false.Verified on multiple machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugmenot2 Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 On another note, what's with the extra folder & file created in the updates folder (updates>3.4.3_40212>uTorrentie.exe)? Bump... what is this executable? It loads ~3 instances when UT is started. If you delete it it recreates it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deagan Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 So it seems that uTorrent is still not telling Windows to stop caching file reads/writes. Can someone please explain why we keep hearing the vague "Windows' cache stupidity" excuse when there are clear instructions on how to prevent this issue on the MSDN pages? This is just as bad as the tracker admins' goto reason for blacklisting torrent clients. It's getting really annoying to restart uTorrent every time a large torrent has finished downloading. I don't have a lot of memory because I really don't need it. But every time this happens, my computer slows to a crawl, especially if I'm doing some work on a virtual machine at the same time. Another thing, when I add a torrent that I've downloaded before and don't uncheck the "Start torrent" option in the dialog (so it automatically starts hash checking), I see thousands of CreateFile calls. In fact, there's one call for every piece of the torrent. A forced recheck from the context menu does not behave like that. Here's a Process Monitor screenshot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teh Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Hi, can some tell me what going on? uTorrent constantly crashes cause windows ran out of memory, but it doesn't. I have 4 out of 8 GB FREE. I dont understand this... E: i dont have ZA or NAM or anything out of the ordinary. Its the same system i have for about 2 years and its running perfectly fine.

peeer Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Hi, can some tell me what going on? uTorrent constantly crashes cause windows ran out of memory, but it doesn't. I have 4 out of 8 GB FREE. I dont understand this...It must be just because of the 32bit limitations since µtorrent is a 32bit application. EDIT: Each times I seen µtorrent taking that much memory it was because the cache size was set too high tho. If you got yours set to 1024MB or higher try to reduce it there is no point to have it any higher than that, I personally set mine to 512MB.

teh Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 I dont understand. I dont have a cache size set, and Windows does NOT run out of memory. I've been using uTorrent for years and suddenly it crashes. What changed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peeer Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Windows does not need to run out of memory, a program in itself have a limit of ram it can use from the system per process. And 32bit programs have a smaller limit than what a 64bit program can use on Windows systems. User-mode virtual address space for each 32-bit process2 GB with IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE cleared (default)4 GB with IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE set User-mode virtual address space for each 64-bit processWith IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE set (default): x64: 8 TBIntel Itanium-based systems: 7 TBWindows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2: 128 TB2 GB with IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE clearedSource: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa366778%28v=vs.85%29.aspx As for the cache size I don't know if you got an idea what I was meaning but I have taken a screenshot where you can find it in µtorrent Preferences just in case. Note I'm not saying thats what cause your µtorrent process to take all the ram limit it can use, just that its worth to take a look.Here it is: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teh Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Its not enabled. But would it make sense to disable all advanced caching options? FTR, for me, which is default afaik as i dont remember ever having done modification there, the first (override...) and last (increase...) is unchecked.

teh Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Ok, seems i have this. I watched the ram and it hovers around 1,5 too and when it goes a bit higher, i get the errors, it cant allocate and windows runs out https://forum.utorrent.com/topic/95050-memory-leak-bugs-in-342-build-37477-38463-38803-38913/?hl=%2Bwindows+%2Bmemory#entry501719 Im using the latest version 40208 Thx rafi, i'll try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peeer Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Have you tried configuring it like in my image? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teh Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 No, but i'll try. I was about to try without the advanced. Did you set it like this because of the same issue? I've also tried an older build from rafi's log, but the only one that worked, i guess redirected to the latest beta, so im running 40265 now. I cant get older version from here, the official site? Googling just points to some websites i have no idea about its credibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peeer Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 No I have it set like that because of the Disk Overload issues I have had in the past but it could be interesting to see if it fixes your problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teh Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 Im doing now (back on the last supposedly stable version 40208). Ticked of every single one and its fine for the last 2hrs, but that doesn't necessarily man anything. It can run for a day fine, and i also rebooted my pc. Speed is great though, or at least teh max i can get anyway (10mbs) E: Ok, 40 min later - crash... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peeer Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 Well according to duytrung from that other thread you pointed on post #1787 up here it seems he fixed it by downgrading to version 3.4.2 Build 38707. I'm guessing your only solution for now would be to revert back to version 3.4.2 Build 38707 or to an alternative that works for you and wait for a new µtorrent version to test if they fixed the bug and revert back to whats working until they finally get to fix this issue. Because I can see a crashing problem like this to be quite troublesome, I mean if everytime you going to download/seed large torrents at very fast speeds it goes on and crash. Not very pleasant to deal with, I can feel your pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teh Posted May 6, 2015 Report Share Posted May 6, 2015 I dont have build 38707 in there, but a few even older ones. I've tried 37754 from a sporadic back up i made, which should be working, but doesnt. That supports the claims from the developers that this isnt a utorrent issue, and apparently, there are only very few that seems to have this issue, which means its not really a concern for them. My only idea is to make a memory check, but then again, i dont have problems otherwise. If that doesnt bring any positivity, i guess i'll have to reorganize my library. I already have qbit and deluge installed but they dont quite offer the things utorrent does. So that sucks. However, thx for the replies.

rafi Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 Sounds like either a bad setting thing (you can try run w/o your settings dat files, except mine...) or possibly defective HW/RAM ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
