Thank you, that makes sense! I will try this again today and report back. I'm feeling positive about this.

Or is there a way to change the name of your egg so that it is recognized as a different plugin inside deluge?

Ok, still didn't work. For some reason, after I enabled Notifications in the GUI and after a 2nd reboot, it brought back the renamed directory to its default folder name and used that old egg again. I guess this is how docker containers work. I can put a startup script to solve this IF the egg in th...

Ok, I don't know why but when I checked this path again inside the container, I see that the "egg"s are actually directories and not files. Thanks for the clue and that's what I did. I renamed the /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/deluge/plugins/Notifications-0.3.egg "directory" and...

If I just put in the plugins folder and restart Deluge, how do I know that deluge will be using your updated version?

Yes, already did. Question regarding the size of the file though. I see in Windows (thru smb) that the files being downloaded have a full "size" but a smaller "size on disk" value. Does that mean that pre-allocating is indeed working because the size on the disk itself is smaller?

I'm using LSIO's latest deluge image (2.0.3) and I have pre-allocation disabled (unchecked) in the settings. I only have a 250GB SSD as my intermediate folder for downloads and I recently had gone out of disk space because I had around 5 x 50GB downloads in deluge and they all had pre-allocated spac...
