Just curious,about torrent settings.
Any suggestions about ktorrent settings?
Tried a test-download of 11.1 at home. With torrent it should take me several days, while with ftp it's about 57 minutes.
I used aria2c to do my downloading of 11.1, after an initial wget stalled (having initially looking like it'd use the max bandwidth). I've used ktorrent in past, but with the infrstructure all set up on Thursday, Peter Poeml's advice helped. What I've noticed experimenting, is on the network I use, which is based on Cable TV company infrastructure, that upload traffic, cuts download speed heavily and vice-versa. So I actually think now pardoxically if you want to contribute a seed, it's faster to set a download limit initially that's about 95% of max download speed (for more consistency), and limit upload speed very heavily at first. Then afterwards re-run to start seeding, with an upload limit that's about 80% of the max, with no interference from download traffic. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
