Deluge Forum

if you lets say try this torrent:

http://www.beetxt.com/Tt3/

with deluge it starts like
1min - 0.6KB - ETA 3weeks
5min - 20KB - 20hrs
10min - 14kb - 1day
then over the course of 20 min it goes up to 200kb and comes down to 11-12kb
at 30min it is at around 300kb constantly going down to 20kb-40kb-60kb
during all this time only 5% has been downloaded

I have the "announce to all tiers" and "announce to all trackers" already enabled and seeder are around 9600 with 11700 peers
and it's the only torrent running


but if you use the same and put it in another program (tried bitcomet),
after 5 min, it is already downloading at around 600kb with ETA around 30min and going up, and already 8.8% has been downloaded.


why is there such a difference? I don't understand!!!

using the suggestion from another post to use the high performance preset in ltConfig (thanks galneon), the speeds improved "significantly",
currently downloading at around 700kb-1mb.
I almost gave up on deluge to opt in for another client.
I should do more testing.

with the high performance preset, if 2 torrents are active, the total speed never goes above 650kb,
with 1 torrent only, it is now downloading at around 2.3mb speed,
but it uses some much resources on a core i7, 8gb system that video playback stutters heavily while downloading.
I guess I gotta look for alternative clients after all.
