splintax Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 I know this is a really minor issue, but I just wanted to know why this happens.Whenever I set a seeding goal (ie. my usual seeding goal is 200%), the torrent ends with a ratio of about 0.001 less than the goal. That is, I always get torrents "completed" at a ratio of 1.999. Not a problem, just wanted to know why and if there's a way to fix it. It is a bit messy after all.

DonGato Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Yep, saw this but not always in my case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Maybe it's rounding up or down based on nearest chunk size or last upload request to a peer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 It's a rounding error, sometimes you end up with 2.001 instead. The reason is that since it works in 16KB chunks, it won't get you to exactly the ratio you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kewldude607 Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 I think it should always go over, not under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stone Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Well, I never get it above my selected ratio, but often it's 1.09 instead of 1.10 (not always). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inf Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 how about just setting it 0.01 higher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
