Numbers in parentheses

Post by jallain »

I know what seeders and peers are but I don't know the difference between the numbers that are in parentheses and the ones that are not. I see this on most clients but have never understood the difference in the numbers. Would someone please satisfy my curiosity? Also want to say that Deluge is without a doubt, hands down, the BEST client I have ever used. I love all it's capabilities plus its great eye appeal. Tremendous job to the development team.

Right, so what are the numbers abc(xyz) in the Download and Upload lines? Is that overhead or something/

The bottom picture is after downloading a file for about 12 hours in one session. Are you sure it works?
Perhaps it is good a good idea to add this info to the FAQ.

Update: Something's definitely wrong here. The upper picture is the very same file several hours later after a reboot.

yes, i'm sure it works. you quite often get bad pieces that you have to redownload, etc, and total downloaded shows the size on your hd

So, does that mean that 717 Mib got downloaded but 666 got written to disk? How do you interpret the Upload line: 888 Mib (430 Mib)?
