tracker combination?
tracker combination?
Does deluge uses all trackers in the list? I notice that utorrent will cycle through the list of trackers and combine the seeders/leechers found. But I don't see that in deluge. So, does deluge actually does that? If not, can this feature be added? Cause having more seeds means my download can go faster cause right now some of my older downloads are progressing very slow like 1-2k/s.

Re: tracker combination?
we use trackers according to how the bittorent protocol mandates...other clients (utorrent, fucking ass holes), do not. for more info see this http://forum.deluge-torrent.org/viewtop ... cker#p2259abubin wrote:Does deluge uses all trackers in the list?

Re: tracker combination?
ok got it. So, other trackers didn't comply with the round-robin method of tracker usage. But from end-user's perspective, they want their torrents to download ASAP. So users would rather have combined trackers than only one tracker works at one time. I know it's not right to ask for this but possible to make it a plugin?
Cause like my case, I have lots of downloads backdated to a couple of months. So there are very little seeders/leechers left. The downloads are crawling at very slow speed. I just thought it might help if the trackers can be combined and my downloads could move faster. Right now, I have 5 active torrents and overall download averages less than 20k/s. I have set the max connections to 200 but it only uses up to 100 connections. So, this is really wasting resources.
