Good time of the day, Artifex.

Here "except this check that fight w/" should be read as "except this check that *I* fight w/" - missed "I". > What prelocate means? Preallocate disk space for torrent content? rtorrent takes disk space before it actually fills it w/ torrent data. I.e. torrent can be downloaded just 1% while on the disk it is located for whole 100%. - So, though there is little free space remain, yet the torrent can be successfully downloaded/uploaded already - but the amazing (uncontrollable for me) check, prevents that to happen. > > 3.

Yes, that I know, thank You. But the problem is that it does not work! - Setting to any lower that 500 MB profits me nothing: it still regards 500 MB limit (default one?) - so, it seems to me either it is a bug or rtorrent just ignores this my setting, though it gives me no error, and the other options that are in the same config. file are read and are in use as I may see. So, question for now: can You test it? - Setting the above option to something less than 500 MB and to use torrent w/ a partition (You may make one w/ tmpfs, say 300-400 MB, just for the test) that has less than that free space?
