Peers - Torrent Inspector info sought -- just curious

Post by tolen »

Please tell me what the percentage figures refer to in the “Peers - Torrent Inspector” window.
Also, I’m curious about the cryptic messages referring to “Progress”? Is that the percentage of the total file that the peer has already downloaded and has available to pass on? — just guessing.

Following is a brief list of some other terms which appear in the balloons instigated by hovering the cursor over the colored bars or percentage figures in the % column — please fill in a short definition for each, if you would be so kind.

And what is the significance of the green, red, yellow and gray bars?

All seems to be working well here — just curious, that’s all. By the way, searching neither the Help menu nor the Forums has turned up nothing.
I’m obviously new to all this, so might not even know for what I should be searching.

I think:

The % figures represent the percentage of the total file that the peer has.

"Progress" is what you think it is.

The red, yellow and green bars graphically represent "progress". Red changes to yellow around 30% or so, yellow changes to green around 70% or so. Gray is the graphic representation of the complement.

I have guesses about the rest, but yours will be as good as mine.
