What does queued mean on utorrent

As a result, I will be less inclined to report bugs in the future, so don't be surprised if your software won't be very popular because it is full of bugs which you all constantly try to explain away as "user error".

I am getting increasingly frustrated with users who think they know the protocol and how it works, and yet demonstrate in their posts with their settings and connection information that they do NOT understand how it works. The queued seed state is a state that torrents are in where the number of torrents loaded exceeds the number of active torrents permitted. Running more torrents than your connection can support which you appear to be doing will cause a big mess, not only in your own queue, but in the swarms for the individual torrents.

Are these torrents that are in a queued state having a higher ratio than the others in your seeding list? You have no seed goals set so that torrents can never finish seeding? As long as there are 23 in your case apparently active torrents, as you must have set yourself in the options yes, it -IS- in there, thing Queue , the 24th or 25th will be queued which means: will wait in line untill a torrent ahead of it becomes inactive.

Let's see I want to share, say, torrents. I only want to maximize the chances that other people get these files and speed , permanently all of them. That's the point of sharing, right?

All of them have only seeds and no peers, so no data transfer occur aside from scrapes , then suddenly some peers appear on 40th now queued torrent.

All of them have seeds and peers, so data transfers steadily, then suddenly all seeds dissappears from 40th now queued torrent. As i see it, if both answers is ''yes" then great if no, then we have lazy bad design, not bug, here. Please correct me if i'm wrong. You have to take into consideration that the number of upload slots set in your preferences are per-torrent. Each torrent you have active ADDS that many upload slots to the number you already have. In situation one, with queue.

You have to keep in mind, if you're keeping more torrents active than your connection can sustain, situation one will become more and more frequent until you correct your settings. Many thanks to jt! Apparently you know better than me to ask the right questions. The reason you think this way is because you have misinterpreted my postings and you are now reluctant to admit to yourself that I mean something wholly different.

To be frank, your posts demonstrate this quite clearly, because you keep going on about the same thing namely, upload speeds! But nevertheless, I repeat, this is not about upload speeds. Even if it is in "Queued Seed" mode? It sure doesn't display anything in the "Peers" tab. You are trying to compare a downloader-supplemented download accelleration system bittorrent to a peer to peer network ed2k.

The bittorrent protocol operates most efficently when a peer can upload an entire request chunk bytes in a timely manner. Having too many upload slots active at once as a result of too many active torrents at once violates the BitTorrent protocol. It wouldn't be so bad if you only have 5 or fewer connections total at the time, like might be the case on dial-up Plus, the packets themselves have a minimal overhead of about bytes Insanely inefficient.

Emule works by putting someone in queue for your files that isn't actually connected to you, so it can somewhat handle lots of people trying to download your files at once.

Waiting a week to START a download is insanely inefficient, and kills dial-up's ability to participate in any reasonable fashion. BitTorrent maintains connections to people on the same torrent as you even when no file transfer occurs between them, so it has to be very limited on the number of connections per torrent and global max or you'll find individual torrent upload speeds as bad or worse than dial-up speeds.

For 4 MB piece size, it will take about 70 minutes. Until then, nobody else has anything to share. BitComet is notorious for such low upload speeds, and really sabotages otherwise well-seeded torrents because of it.

I have no idea what "scrape my boy, scrape" is supposed to mean. So I will continue to share thousands of files on eMule and only a few on BitTorrent, because apparently that's all your software allows me to do.

What an artificial distinction. Both descriptions are vague enough to apply equally well to both systems. It's quite simple: The "availability" of a torrent as you call it is nothing more than the seed count reported on the tracker.

You're saying that you don't want the upload to be thinned out, this means the upload has to stay with one torrent, this means you can't upload to other torrents. Sure, you could start them and announce to the tracker And then you shouldn't connect to peers either, since that would cause immense overhead to connect to peers of many torrents you're uploading to. I want to share, say, torrents. I only want to maximize the chances that other people get these files and speed, permanently all of them.

That's the point of sharing, right? As i see it, if both answers is 'yes then great if no, then we have lazy bad design, not bug, here. Please correct me if i'm wrong.. New torrents are stuck on Queued status - the uTorrent forum. How To Queue Downloads In Utorrent Queued means the torrent job is waiting for another torrent job to finish downloading before starting. Bitshares Supply.

Be more specific to avoid this back and forth with short cryptic messages. Anyway I don't see why labels or category are relevant to my troubleshoot. For me some of the torrents were added directly to the "Completed" category, and "queued". Queued torrent is in both Downloading and Inactive category. DreadWingKnight Posted December 12, And how many torrents are in the "all" category?

And how many of those are not in a state that lists as "Queued"? I had a few restarts since then. And have you set all the torrents to normal and not forced starts? It honestly sounds like uTorrent is simply following your queue settings. Should I increase the active torrents queue setting? I have no ideea why but that did the trick.

Thank you for all your help DreadWingKnight. You are right. Archived This topic is now archived and is closed to further replies.
