Set upload limit

Post by jack »

I have one question. Can I set upload speed for specific torrents other then 1000 kbps? For eg I want to set it for one specific torrent at 3096 kbps. They are killing my HDD with 11,8 MB/sec upload :D

You can set the general upload limit in Options -> Speed tab and then you can set a max. UL speed per torrent, up to this general UL limit.

As I see on Speed tab you can set Global UL and DL limits...I can't control from there one particular torrent.

You are correct there is an upper limitation of 1MB/s in the gui. Currently you cannot set over that. Why not set the global rate limit to 3096 instead?

No, there isn't any limit. The upload limit per torrent depends on the global upload limit. Once you set the global UL limit to, let's say, 6144 KB/s you can set up individual (per torrent) UL limit up to 6144 KB/s. And this is the best way to go, especially if you have an old HDD, or a HDD with less than 32 MB buffer size.

Holy shit, who has 12Mb/s UPstream on their home connection? Or is it a datacenter connection?

If you have a symmetric fiber optic line, it's totally possible, i have a 100/10 line and my upload reaches 1,2 MB/s. Multiply that by 10 and you're set  ;D
