Not quite sure, but are you saying that some of my advice actually works? :shock:
seems it did for a while. but now it crashed again, but I think it crashed now because ofthe many tranfers downloading at the same time

I have an other crash report, I have now updated to the lastes build but it happens there too (when I have 20 tranfers or more downloading at the same time always at the max download speed (set 300KB/s)) so I hope you can find something in here:

nah it seems not to freeze when I have only a few torrents downloading (like 3) seems fine to me.

That's my experience too. I just lowered the "Queues" numbers on the Transfers/Management preference panel and the lockups went away (downloads 2, seeding 20). I'd guess it's a multi-threading issue (possibly triggering an OS bug). It's happened with several different releases from 1.5x to 1.71 (I haven't tried increasing the queues on 1.73).

No new news here, just wanted to chime in, this issue affected me over the last two days, and was wondering why my comp was freezing up! Had to resort to Applejack to get the Mac booting again :(
