It gives me about 20Mb/s
I finally found an odd fix, not sure why it worked this way, but I thought to pass it along on the hope that maybe it will work for you as well as it did for me. My max upload is about 38KBPS, my max download is about 160KBPS. I'd set for to -1, so that the u/d rates would be set to infinite, so that the torrent client would intelligently choose the best rate. But my experience showed that my max ACTUAL gross download was only about 25KBPS (remember, I was expecting, from the torrent protocol, to get better than 6 times that.) Well, finally losing all hope, I decided to set the upload rate down to about 20K, so I could use the reserved rate for other entertainments. IMMEDIATELY upon limiting the UPLOAD rate to 20K, the download rate shot up to nearly my 160K maximum. I can't understand this, but I tried to move the upload/download rates around a little bit, to verify the finding: that I just should NEVER set the rates to infinite, and that (at least in ktorrent) the max download rate really was attainable. I haven't any idea why this worked for me, only that it did do this, reliably. I may go back to trying previous torrent clients now. What a fine way to spend the afternoon! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkmXKZgACgkQz62J6PPcoOn0jACfe1wnh+JFmhQYi2UgjYRIc/y2 SFQAn2y5qjyzL3rEfmT8YOtq2MMuoKTx =xcN8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
