Transmission

So... I upgraded to 2.20

I'd been busy lately so less traffic. Q'ed up a bunch of files this morning, came home tonight.

POOF! Trans was back to its old tricks. Had to do the hard reset and go from there.

I've reverted back to 1.9

We'll see how that goes. Updates to follow. Anyone else?

I haven't upgraded yet. I'm still running 2.13. I decided I'm not going to try the betas because of glitches and such. I don't have the time to waste when things go awry.

On 2.13, there have been no issues once I implemented the changes I indicated above. Running like a top.

The option to control RAM went the way of the dodo with OS9. It used to be an operating system thing. If I am correct, there's no way to do it within the program as it would conflict with the OS.

If you don't want TBT to hang when quitting, pause all transfers first, wait a few seconds, then quit ...

Perhaps. The RAM issue is interesting. I have 10 GB so that'd be more than enough to spare some for a 'cache' of sorts.

I personally think there is a flaw in the program because the code writers didn't think that people would be dealing with the enormous amounts of data and the sheer number of ...

Nope. I have 1 drive in slot 1 for that's the boot drive. The other 3 drives are RAID. That's where I go.

I did have a crash last week when I tried to allow unlimited UL streams. I had 30-50 transfers going, and a 7MB up stream connection. Well, it didn't like that. Crasho! Ever since I lowered it ...

That's correct. Bay 1 is the OS drive. Bays 2-4 are the RAID.

Since I started writing to an internal disk, I have not had this issue. I am currently writing to an internal RAID as described above.

I can even have extensive operations going on at the same time. I can have handbrake converting files, iTunes streaming, MKVTools converting, etc.

To be thorough ...

Please send me your script. theshrimpguy@me.com

Please be sure to zip it as Apple's firewalls will no doubt not let a script go through in all probability.

Thanks Dude!

So.... here's an update. I could never get Transmission to run my automator created app. I don't know how to program in applescript so I can't say that is fully tested. However, he is what I have gotten to work...

I have a 8TB RAID that I use to store all my digital video on for playback in iTunes ...

So. Here's an update. Last night I managed to complete 13 of 30 downloads. Each file ranging from 2-5GB. This was the most number I was able to complete between crashes. That being said, the machine did crash this morning after I got up. Or shall I say, it was frozen when I got up.

Here's my theory ...

I have done a great deal of research on this problem. The problem of Transmission crashing my mac seems to be a fairly common one. Some people say it crashes airport. It seems to be an issue across many versions of OS X, on all types of macs.

To be clear, let me describe. If one leaves Transmission ...
