![]() ![]() The BitTorrent network would cease to exist if everyone continued to download files, and no one uploaded anything. This action occurs after a file has been downloaded and while the file is being downloaded.īitTorrent technology’s sharing or seeding feature is the very reason that P2P is still growing in popularity. The primary feature of the P2P network is that any user who connects to it to download torrents will automatically upload portions of the files they have downloaded. UTorrent is one of the most popular BitTorrent clients, allowing users to receive and send files over a peer-to-peer network. Australia’s Mandatory Data Retention SchemeĪ good file-sharing protocol is required when distributing large files over the internet.Internet Safety for Kids (A Parent’s Guide).Whether it should be changed/changeable is a different story (which has been requested plenty of times before). The choice to do this was deliberate ( again, the manual spells the whole thing out quite clearly). The logic carries over perfectly in real world operation, so no, in no way is this a bug in implementation. At a minimum, users should be given a choice of true "AND"/"OR" operation which would allow the user to decide if even once the seeding ratio they specify has been met the seeding will continue until the "clock" runs out.Īs always please feel free to reply to my comments here on the forum or use the form based email to reach me to discuss this further.Īs a programmer, you should clearly know what that implies. I have made suggestion/request in the Requests forum for this feature of seeding ration <= X "OR" seeding time <= X be reworked to function as the UI states it does. The actual result is that the torrent will continue seeding until the full 4320 (72 hours) have completed.Īs I have stated in previous posts, I am a firm believer in leaving things better than I found them (Giving back more than I get) but when I look some days later and see my ratio has reached 1000% I find that to be a problem since it seems obvious that with such interest and other seeders once I have reached my true goal of seeding back to a ratio of 150% has been met, I am doing nothing but wasting precious bandwidth which could be dedicated to other needing torrents. In this example (Real World), my seeding ratio reaches 150% which should stop the torrent amd make it "Inactive" since condition #1 (ratio) of the "OR" statement (again || for the programmers) has been met. The result is simple, I set seed ratio to 125%-150% (give more than I get) and as per many of my private tracker requirements I need to set a time limit as a backup in case there is no demand for the torrent contents which I am seeding so in the "OR" seeding length box (<=) to 4320. I see that this is not how uTorrent is coded to work and I do believe that it is a bug in the implementation of requirements and implementation specifications of such a client. The problem is simple, I expect the client (as would most normal users, though I am far from a normal user being a professional developer for over 13 years and having written my own bittorrent client) to honor the lower of the two criteria. OR - and this means OR (for programmers out there ||) ![]() ![]() In this following example I think that I can clarify the entire situation and have posted a feature request (#2 or #3) in regards to the Global seeding settings under Queuing.Ī private torrent tracker requires one of the two following conditions to be met:ġ.) An UL Ratio of 1:1 (100%) - Personally I always set my UL to 125-150% (the old native american saying, leave a place in the same or better condition than you found it) I hate to disagree with anyone (no that's not passive agressive BS) however. ![]()
