Adrn7 Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Hello! I've been having a problem recently with downloading torrents. Whenever I add a torrent it starts up with the normal speed (between 2.0MB/s-4.0MB/s), but after like a minute, or two, it drops down to a mere 0.7KB/s-0.9KB/s After 10 minutes or so, it goes back up again only to go back down after one minute again. I tried to with old and new torrents too, so it's not the seeds' fault. Browsing works flawlessly even when the download speed drops.

DreadWingKnight Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 How many torrents are you trying to run at once? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrn7 Posted February 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Only this one is downloading, I've got quite a few seeding though. EDIT: I just noticed at the bottom saying "Disk Cache Overloaded 100%"Can that be the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrn7 Posted February 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Yea, now I actually payed attention, the download speed drops whenever disk cache fills up. Any solution to this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 It likely is. Try running fewer torrents at once and also try enabling sparse files in advanced preferences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
