Deluge Forum

Hey there
I am using a dedicated server with one gigabit up/down for hosting game servers among other things. As you can imagine, this does not even remotely use up my available bandwith, so I have decided to "donate" a fifth of my bandwith to torrents like kali linux or ubuntu distributions. The only problem now is the client: Because of my bandwith I can download all the torrents within seconds, but once I start seeding I never exceed upload speeds of one or two megabytes per second. I know that in order to optimize my upload speed I have to tweak my core.conf settings - there are some guides on this forum, the only problem being that they are for the gui version of Deluge, in the core.conf of the deluge demon, there are some ambiguous settings and the gui-tutorial does not really apply to them.

What I'd ask is for two things: Is there a detailed description of each setting found in core.conf in the deluge demon configuration file? Secondly, what settings would you recommend if I wanted to seed at a speed of 50 Megabytes per second?

You don't want to enable the client-server configuration of deluge, so that you can perform all control and settings from your desktop gui?

My server runs a no-gui version of Ubuntu 12, therefore using the GUI is not an option for me.

how do you add delete torrents now without a gui? the web interface?

you can install deluge-console on your server along with the daemon and use a gui on another computer to interact with the server like it was a regular gui with client-server mode


i followed this page

if you already have deluge console installed

add a user then then connect from deluge on another computer
