Slow Speeds on Docker

[cdmichaelb]

I'm having speed issues.

Disabling uTP helped me even though I'm not using a VPN. I went from 47MB/s to 75MB/s.
The goal is 145MB/s which is what I get with the Windows client on my main desktop.

I'm already using ltconfig on High Performance Seed mode.

My deluge settings are mostly default except for encryption which is set to Enabled, Enabled, Either.

I have also restarted the docker each time I change settings.

The system hardware is more than sufficient, and I've run iperf3 which show speeds that should be sufficient:

Code: Select all

[ ID] Interval           Transfer     Bitrate         Retr
[  5]   0.00-10.00  sec  1.74 GBytes  1.49 Gbits/sec  560             sender
[  5]   0.00-10.04  sec  1.74 GBytes  1.49 Gbits/sec                  receiver

I would start with seeing if you can

Code: Select all

docker exec -it [container-id] sh

and wget a file at the speeds you are expecting.

It's likely your Windows client (which I assume is using the VPN) may be using a different protocol (OpenVPN vs wireguard as an example) and this could be causing issues.

Also, you could have the VPN set to different servers.

Just a few initial ideas. You don't really give much detail on the server environment to help us help you though.

I'm not using VPN or wireguard. I just mentioned VPN because it's usually associated with disabling uTP.

The environment is the default deluge 2.2.1 docker from lscr.io/linuxserver/deluge:2.1.1 running inside portainer. The machine itself is running Ubuntu Server LTS.

I finally figured out how to run iperf3 in docker and here are the results, which should be plenty (My wan is 2Gbit):

Code: Select all

[ ID] Interval           Transfer     Bitrate         Retr
[  5]   0.00-10.00  sec  2.68 GBytes  2.30 Gbits/sec    0             sender
[  5]   0.00-10.04  sec  2.68 GBytes  2.29 Gbits/sec                  receiver

Fake Edit (I realized this before submitting but left the rest for posterity):
I think I might've fixed it though, I disabled uTP (again, last time I disabled the wrong uTP setting). I'm getting 123MB/s now, which is pretty great. It's not my maximum, but I think my test file is too small to connect to enough seeds to reach my max.

I usually don't see peak speeds, even on linux ISO's with hundreds of seeds, until around 1-2GB in the best of circumstances.
