Increase number of connections per torrent?

I know there is an option to increase the global number of connections, but there is none for individual torrents, which seems to be locked at 80. Is there any way to increase this, and if not I suggest including this option in the next stable release. Thanks for the great software, this is rapidly becoming my favourite bittorrent client.

As of 0.5.2 I have finally been able to stop using wine+utorrent!

we actually dont set a per torrent limit on connections, which leaves it as unlimited. it's possible that we'll include this at some point. glad you're liking the client

That's kinda odd, I'm currently leeching off a 5000 peer torrent but I only have 80 connections. The setting for global connections is -1 (unlimited). When I select "update tracker" it does go over 80 temporarily, then drops a couple of connections to go back to 80 in total. Other than that I have never seen it go over 80 for individual torrents.

Hi,
Same problem here, global torrent connections are staying about 70-80 Connections.
Even with a 1000 Peers Torrent the connection number won't raise, it's always about 70-80.
Currently, downloading from 5 torrents with 1000+ Peers, but global connection number wont raise above 70...
Kinda strange...
Maximum Connections setting is at "-1".

Deluge is acting wierd since the last update for me. I'm running with about 4-8 global connections on 7 torrents. It starts around 80 though.

No, but I did now. I uninstalled deluge and removed the config directory; The problem is still there. Azureus runs without a problem, but I cant figure out why deluge doesnt.
Got 2 connections now.
