pyc Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Half of them can't get out of "updating" status. It's like there are some constraints in preferences, yet I already have raised numbers well above defaults. Please can someone help checking whether my numbers are good? Thanks...

rafi Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 We don't know your "numbers" except for one - 7500, which is a crazy number! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyc Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Will give some screenshots here soon, and if I may ask you why do you think it's crazy number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 For 7500 *active* torrents, even is there was a single connection per torrent, 7500 connections will kill anyone's PC...Unless you have them mostly queued, and 50-100 active...

pyc Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Of course they are not active in the same time, say 10-20 are active, they just need to be seeded (available)... But the point is half of them can't even contact the tracker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ktetch Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 Can I just say, unofficially, you're a fool pyc. You have terrible settings. They'd be suitable if you had 10GBit upload, but you don't. Here's one reason why you've got 8000 torrents, and yet only 2000 connections between them all, and each torrent is supposed to have 5. Starting to see the issue yet? use THIS GUIDE to set up your client, based on your UPLOAD speed, and don't do any more stupid setups, ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyc Posted February 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 First of all, take it easy bud with your ego-trip. No need to behave that way, I'm much more informed about computers than you think. Secondly, "connections" parameter is pretty much general and unintuitive so I was experimenting with different values. Guess what, now my settings look like this and still I have the same problem (half torrents won't even contact the tracker). I used recommendations from the page you suggested. Additionally, I noticed there are about 10 seeds that start seeding, but soon stop, so there's not active even one seed, but I'm completely sure there are interested peers. Actually, I'm going through this story again after few years, getting some ugly resistance here on forums, and what I can say right now is that uTorrent is incapable of seeding this much torrents. If I'm wrong, would you show me how would you setup the parameters so that ~8000 torrents are available? I would be happy that you prove me wrong. Of course I don't need 8000 torrents active uploading or downloading at the same time, but tracker should be informed they're all seeded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyc Posted February 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 I recorded a video of torrents starting and dying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ktetch Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 Er no.You talk about 'ego trip' and then say you're more informed about computers than I think. Based on your posts to date, you're not in any way relevant to here (so you're ego-boasting). Also, had you looked in the help-file, or the online guides, you'd know exactly what the 'connections' field means. and what I can say right now is that uTorrent is incapable of seeding this much torrents.It's not, your connection IS. There are NO settings that can change your connection into one capable of it. As for your video... it's no use setting the queue settings so it works, if you're going to 'force start' and make them ignore it. And when I said use the settings, I meant actually use the right ones, not pick and choose from different lines. You've shown here you don't know beans about bittorrent. You might think you do, but you don't, and that's why you are getting the 'ugly resistance'. What you want to do is like running the 100m in 10 seconds. Sure some people can do it, but YOU CAN NOT, and no matter how much you want to, it's not going to happen. So instead of insisting you can do it, listen to those who know better and are telling you what you want is outside your reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyc Posted February 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 I'm in no doubt you investigated me properly, as for ego-trip, there's nothing else to say when someone calls you a fool so easiliy. uTorrent is informing the tracker about torrents it seeds, once in like 15 mins for every torrent, and that's I guess is just a few bytes that needs to be transferred, after what (I believe) http connection to tracker is closed. So you're saying my 20 Mbit connection and Cisco router are not capable of supporting that kind of load? Sorry but I do think that's not excessive high number of active torrents nor connections I want simultaneously. And I'm not talking about 7500 simultaneous uploads here in any way. I just wanna say also I'm able to seed similar amounts of torrents simultaneously in Vuze, in Linux, at home at 12 Mbit link. Seems to me it's some case of bad software design, but you're not willing to say it, I just don't know why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafi Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 If I were you, I'd try the same "test" with the latest 3.4.1 beta. they have fixed a few things related to seeding, and if needed - this is the place were it will be fixed. Who knows... Just backup your setting files first... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
