question about preallocation and skipping files...
Posted: Fri Jul 24, 2009 3:38 am
i'm not 100% certain but as far as I can tell, if I download the first and last files of a 10 file torrent totalling 1gig (100 mbs each file) then it ends up using up 1 full gig rather than 200 mb?
i'm not really sure because the files in question were randomly removed from transmission for some reason and i can't find the original torrent files.. but i think i have incomplete downloads taking up the full amount of disc space.
