eighto2 Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 I think that an option should be added that you can limit the upload speed while files are downloading, so say you cap your upload at 60 kbps, when the files are done downloading, have it be able to automatically switch to 0 or whatever you set it as.

silverfire Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Is it that hard to right click your torrent and change numbers yourself? Especially now with torrent completion notification, you can do that easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dajojo88 Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 There is no reason to alter the upload speed while downloading. If you have the upload limit set to the proper amount, you will never run into problems while uploading and downloading at the limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eighto2 Posted October 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 but when my torrents are done, i'm not always in front of my computer and i like to seed as fast as i can when they're finished, sometimes i'm not home for days at a time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 He's asking to have an upload rate for downloading and a different upload rate for seeding. 0 = Unlimited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firon Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 sounds like a leech if you ask me.The option would most likely be used by non-leeches, since a leech wouldn't want to seed at ALL. It'd allow for the sharers to upload more when the torrents are seeding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaSteve Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 i thought by setting it to 0 = stop seeding. same way that it works in the seeding priority options.if 0 = unlimted thats fine. but i dont think that they should be able to set it to stopped as too many leechers will abuse it.

Firon Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 Well, typically 0 is unlimited, although it is true that it's not for non-prioritized torrents, which is probably why it specifically mentions that 0 = stop in that case.. It should be unlimited for seeding though, I do agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosblade Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 I think this can be useful for alot of people.. less upload while downloading might asure a higher download rate (saturation, even if capped), and then throw it back to normal when you're done and dont need the extra download.

DaMaster Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 I'd also like to see this feature, cause it's the only thing that keeps me using Azureus.The current official version of AZ doesn't have it, but the beta-versions of AZ do have this feature.It's a fantastic feature when your downloads finish downloading and you're not around to set it to 0 yourself, since there's no need to cap the upload when there's no downloads to slow down by upping too fast.
