I am fairly new to torrenting, but in Transmission I have found a torrent client I like. Hopefully you can provide with some advice so I can stick with the App.
I'd been downloading a 5GB file on a tracker. Last time I looked at the torrent stats I had 1.1gb DL/ .9gb UL/400mb verified. I understand the way packets of data are downloaded but I was surprised to see such a gap between downloaded and verified.
Shortly after I had an unrelated crash. When I continued the download my verified data had dropped to just 4MB - yes four MB.
It seems to be an extreme instance of the problem referenced here

So is there something I can do to stop such an issue happening again (other than hope my computer doesnt crash). I basically lost 1gb of data. My site usage stats did record the 1.1gb DL/ .9gb UL
I using 1.76 on Snow Leopard 10.6.1
EDIT: I've found another thread here that highlights the same issue
