Other peers may also "mutiny" by disconnecting after getting nothing for longer than their inactive delay timer -- and snub your ip if it reconnects. The absolute minimum allowed by the protocol: Divide your total upload speed to peers by global upload slots Uploading 16 KB to a single peer in 30 seconds is barely faster than 0. Barely avoiding being snubbed isn't a good idea BitTorrent starts falling apart if upload speeds are too low because a piece cannot be shared until it's fully downloaded AND passes hash check.
They have 1 "optimistic unchoke" O flag upload slot which uploads to random peers instead. It's a bit like 2 hikers in the woods Decent downloading settings are often terrible if only seeding Here's a request to reduce do-nothing seeding behavior: Milestone: qBitTorrent v3. If you set the upload limit too low you will not get as many pieces back. This is by design of the BitTorrent protocol itself. If you think another mainstream client like Transmission behaves differently, there is something wrong with your tests.
Latency, or ping, is the time it takes for a data request to leave a computer, get to another computer over the network or Internet and return to the original computer. With file downloads, the latency is how long it takes for the download to start after a computer makes the information request. Latency is important when it comes to programs that are constantly talking back and forth with other devices. The back and forth files take split seconds to download, and the download speed can be increased by decreasing the time between transfers.
Lower latency reduces the time in between requests, thus allowing the next download to begin sooner. Bandwidth is the measurement of how much data can be sent at once. If the Internet was a highway, the bandwidth would measure how many lanes the highway is wide. Bandwidth is the most important factor when transferring large files that are a one-way communication.
Tweaking the upload speed The Speed Guide is great for setting up a variety of variables but it does fall short if your test speed falls half way between two of the possible speeds listed. This causes BitTorrent, uTorrent, and other file sharing download speeds to become slow.
Some ISPs have extremely aggressive throttling methods and for those users it might be necessary to set outgoing to Forced; however this will greatly reduce the number of peers you can connect to. Enabled is sufficient for most users.
People using other firewalls: You will need to refer to your software's own documentation. Trying it out The client should now be set properly for your connection. You can test your speed with any torrent of your choice. Resolving a NAT problem At the bottom of the client window toward the middle of the status bar you will see a colored dot. If the colored dot is red you either have a NAT problem, or have not yet configured your firewall to allow BitTorrent.
Start new topic. Recommended Posts. Westbrook Posted June 24, Posted June 24, I'm somewhat new to uTorrent.
I am in the process of downloading a large file. So far, I have uploaded twice as much as the size of the file that I'm trying to download. But what am I uploading??
