In other words "priming" - special preparations.Īfter 1 hour of being unable to use your computer, quit Azureus/BitComet and transfer the torrent to uTorrent (do the Hash Check and then go). Or use Azureus and see the guys on the Azureus DHT system (take down their IP:port numbers). It gets the peer list (take it down for manual input later) and a small pool of trading data. The only way around it is to get BitComet to do its aggressive bang-on-the-door thing. Problem worsens if many of the guys on said torrent are BitCometers, which for some reason seem to be particularly abundant on weak torrents (probably because it is aggressive or they just don't know better). Basically, this means your weak torrent will not start filling for a long time. And uTorrent is apparently quite unaggressive. DHT and Peer Exchange (the latter uTorrent does not have) and sheer aggressiveness of your client determines how fast (or even if) you can finish your download.Īdd that to the fact that the beginning of your torrent download is where you are weakest. On a weak torrent, there are few peers and even fewer seeds. One can always be generous after he gets the file. UTorrent also doesn't have a banlist (you can go edit ipfilter.dat, but that's a relatively pain), and while there may be ethical issues with a banlist being abused, it does, on the consumer level, improve your performance if you use it ruthlessly. (I do, however, set the line on BitComet lying about what it is uploading and downloading, and I do agree they should not be allowed to deliberately leech). A client's job is to get the download for its user ASAP (hopefully without stopping his computer in the process). A bit of favoritism to BitComet isn't exactly raising my ire either. It is technically legal in BitTorrent to choose to reconnect. uTorrent isn't really slower, in my experience, in most situations, but it is slower to ramp up and there is no doubt in my mind that BitComet (you've noticed this too, eh?), for instance, is more aggressive (I think Azureus is more aggressive too) in getting the stuff.Īs an aside, while no doubt annoying to other clients, I don't consider things like constantly reconnecting to get an Optimistic Unchoke cheating, just aggressive. Btw, whats "prime"? I'm still kinda of a newbie in Bittorent jargon.Īs I understand it, it'd take a VERY powerful computer for you not to feel the Azureus choke. ![]() But who knows, maybe in time he'll convert to µTorrent as well. Well, my brother's PC is more advanced compared to mine in terms of CPU speed and RAM so I guess he doesn't care about the resource hogging of Azureus yet. Is there any solution to this problem? any suggestions would be really helpful. But because of this problem, i have no choice but to use BitComet. you can't even sort the features in BitComet.lol. ![]() the features of BitComet suck compared to µTorrent. Therefore, I'm forced to use BitComet now just to compete with my bro's BitComet. With Bitcomet, I get roughly equal bandwidth with him and sometimes even more if I got more peers/seeds. So reluctantly, I tried using Bitcomet also. I have tried everything with regard to changes in advanced/connection preferences and still he's BitComet gets more bandwidth even if my torrents got more peers and seeds than him. I love µTorrent bcoz of all its features, userfriendliness and less CPU/RAM usage. But everytime we simultaneously download torrents, my brother's BitComet gets more bandwidth than my µTorrent. ![]() My brother uses BitComet and I use µTorrent. Both of our computers are connected to the internet thru a hub. In my house, we have two PCs for my brother and me.
