downloading last 1% extremely slow

Post by costi »

I've been using Deluge 13.1. on my XBMC box (Ubuntu 10.04) for a while now and everything is fine, except one thing: downloading the last 1% of a file takes ages. Deluge will run at full speed, but once it hits 99%, it grinds down to an almost complete halt with download speed less than 1 KB/s. If there are other files inside the torrent, they still download perfectly fine.
This behavior is irrelevant of file size, tracker, availability or torrent label.
I'm running deluged and deluge-web on my HTPC and access it via webUI on my main computer.

What's going on?

This is the end-game algorithm doing its best to not download redundant data. Unfortunately, at times you'll get stuck with a slow peer to finish off the last piece.
