how to avoid seeding torrent queue (lemmy.ml)

Whenever I start qbittorrent, the seeding torrents are queued. I've got two upload slots and 30 seconds timeout. It takes very very long until all torrents are seeding, if ever, until the next restart.

How can I avoid this?

One method is to increase the amount of upload slots to 10 and the timeout to 2 seconds (any large and low number will do it). But I don't want to baby sit qbittorrent every time I start it. Is there another way while keeping only few upload slots?

Seems easier just to disable queuing altogether. Then if you're worried about bandwidth usage just configure your "global maximum number of connections" and your "global rate limits" to whatever you need them to be. Also keep uTP enabled (under Options / Connection) if you're concerned about the torrent client using up your bandwidth while using the internet.

It's not the answer you're looking for but it might be worth giving a try.

I'll test it, thx.

utp? Do oyu mean mutp with a $\mu$? Meaning, disabling tcp?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Yes - But keep both TCP and uTP enabled (should be the default setting unless you changed it).
