Deluge not agressive enough during initial tracker update
Posted: Wed Mar 21, 2012 11:32 am
Greetings.
I've opened a bug report ticket for the same issue (http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/ticket/2059) , but thought it'll be good to share this here as well.
I use autodl-irssi to match the latest releases in my tracker.
Here's what happens:
1. My autodl is set to pass on .torrent files after 35 seconds to Deluge's watch-dir.
2. Deluge picks up the .torrent.
3. Deluge tries to update for the tracker once.
4. If the uploader of said torrent didn't perform "update tracker" on his client in a timely manner - Deluge will time-out and set itself to retry once more in no less than 30 minutes!
5. Those first 30 minutes, in SeedBox?-heavy private trackers, could mean you either:
5. A. Scored big: if Deluge managed to sync up with the tracker and you caught the swarm early.
5. B. Failed miserably: if Deluge timed-out for 30 minutes on the first announcement, and you managed to destroy your ratio on a particular torrent.
This is something that doesn't happen in rTorrent/ruTorrent - where it seems to keep on auto-retrying in very small intervals until it's able to sync up with the tracker.
And so, I kindly ask you implement a more aggressive initial tracker-updating mechanism, just until Deluge is able to pick up and sync with the tracker.
Something in the range of every 5 seconds would be very good. Again, just until it syncs up with the tracker.
BTW: increasing the to anything higher than 35 seconds is quite futile, since there could always be those odd torrents where even after 90 seconds they'd still won't sync, and after 150-180 seconds they would..
