Prioritize rare pieces

[aoeui]

Is it possible to add "prioritize rare pieces" to qB? I think it would make the speed a bit faster at the end of the download.

Or is it something that libtorrent is missing for this to be possible?

Keep up the good work on qB!

Good question. I checked the libtorrent-rasterbar issue tracker but couldn't find anything like this.
You can try opening a new ticket there. Once the developer accepts it and implements your idea, you only have to wait for qBittorrent team to add this feature.

I got a reply here http://code.google.com/p/libtorrent/iss ... d=98&can=4
It seems that I may had a wrongfully assumption that rare pieces didn't have higher priority.

If it is so, I am pleased

Replied there.

The piece picker policy is implemented in libtorrent-rasterbar. It is already prioritizing the rarest pieces, as far as I know.
