Request Auto Torrent Traker List Shuffling

Post by hunterthomson »

First off Good job guys on Deluge. I like it a lot.

I do have one reques to the develupers.

I have found that when I start a new torrent if I go to the "Options tab>Edit Trackers" and then move tracker 0>1 and 1>0 Then hit OK and Apply then go back in and change 2>0 old0>1 old1>2 Then hit OK and Apply then go back n and change Tracker 3>0 Then old0>1 old1>2 old2>3 Then hit OK and Apply then go back and do this untill I have shuffled through the whole list I get a huge speed up. every time I shuffle the traker list I see the #of connections jump up like 100 or so. On a good torrent with like 2,000 seeders will be at top speed by the time I am done shuffleing the list. If I don't shuffle the list then it takes forever to max out speed and connections.

So, I bet it would be simple for you guys to just hard code that action into the application. That way I will not have to do that everytime I start a new torrent. I would suggest haveing it wate 5sec after the torrent started before the shuffleing starts. Then I guess about 3-5 sec's between each tracker list shuffel and once through the list one time it stops.

the next version of libtorrent will support announcing to multiple trackers, so you won't need to do it then.
you could probably write a ui client script in the meantime that does the shuffling for you.
