a44 Posted June 10, 2006 Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 Well sometimes when i'm the only seeder around, I usually use superseeding. It used to work fine until now, around the time when i downloaded the beta. It's not the beta, because my 1.5 version has the same problem too. At first, it seems to work fine. However, after a few minutes, the speed falls and sticks at 0. My peers are still connected but the up speed is 0. What's the problem?P.S: I checked my peerguardian, It isn't blocking anything. I use ZoneAlarm Pro and set the maximum clearance and trust level possible for µtorrent. I even tried opening the ports and adding expert rules, but nothng,Edit: I got similar logs from both peers right before the connection crashes.

DreadWingKnight Posted June 10, 2006 Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 uTorrent's super-seed is broken. It has been for a while.If you want a working super-seed, you currently need to look at ABC or BitTornado. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a44 Posted June 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 Aw bummer. I hope they fix it soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted June 10, 2006 Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 Considering what's broken with it currently, it needs a LOT of work.Transfer amounts get pretty bad, sometimes requiring over 3 times of the torrent's total size to get full distribution in current versions of uT.BitTornado only needs about 105%-125% of the torrent's size in super-seed.Normal seeding needs about 150-160% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a44 Posted June 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 Ah well, I guess i'll have to use normal seeding for now... hope the devs fix it up in the next release. Ty DreadWing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Switeck Posted June 10, 2006 Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 Based on my research, the reason µTorrent sometimes needs over 3 times the torrent's size to get availability over 1...isn't a bug at all. µTorrent is simply trying to follow the BitTorrent protocol too closely, even when in super seed mode.A possible explaination is something external is interfering with µTorrent's super-seeding mode. Even though it's talking about an older Azureus version, it applies to µTorrent:http://azureus.aelitis.com/wiki/index.php/Super_SeedingI'd kill the suspense for you, but read the section about "interferes with Super Seeding?"
