how to reset seed ratio?
Posted: Tue Feb 24, 2009 4:40 pm
After a glitch deluge 1.1.2 shows improbable six-figure seeding ratios for some torrents. I am worried that this may affect the way deluge prioritizes torrents when seeding - am I right? If yes, how can I reset seed ratios?
Deluge got into this situation the following way: I've shut it down by ^q, when started deluged segfaulted, when started again proceeded to re-download some of the seeded torrents (cost me a few gray hairs that one). Post mortem showed that deluge moved these torrents from folders where they were stored to a default 'completed' folder (see http://forum.deluge-torrent.org/viewtop ... =8&t=16215) but apparently crashed before committing changes to its database, after the restart it still assumed that torrents were in their original folders, found no files there and started to download. I promptly paused these torrents - at that moment they either not started downloading at all or were several hundredths of percent complete - moved files back to their proper places, rechecked all affected torrents (upon which deluge moved them back to the default folder AGAIN - damn this bug!) and got these weird ratios. I can only surmise that deluge decided if it downloaded 0.01% of the torrent and then suddenly got 100% of it then seed ratio is 1/0.01%=10,000... Weird.
