Request-Ability to adjust upload slots per torrent

[WLS]

I've recently installed v1.90 and I am very happy with the improvements.

One ability I would like to see in future versions is the ability to adjust the maximum number of upload slots per torrent. While uploading a torrent I noticed that Transmission used an upload slot for every peer I had connected.

I do realize that reducing the maximum peers per torrent would accomplish the same thing. However the less adjustments I need to make to the preferences the better.

Regards!

In settings.json edit this key:

Code: Select all

"upload-slots-per-torrent": number,

Got it! Thanks!

Should be easier though

I have DSL where my upload ability is about 10% of DL --- that ability would sure be nice to have. I manually set my torrent max connections to 2 --- after I get to the seeding mode. 30K does not do much for each leech when you have the default # of connections.

The previous "how to" does me no good (I don't understand).

I see there are tickets on the subject going back to ver 1.3x

I tried editing settings.json and found that the client was re-writing the file at startup to reset the upload-slots-per-torrent value back to 14.

You may want to check and see if the setting you made stuck in your config file.

I had to build the program from scratch to make it stop doing this.

Don't edit the file while transmission is running.
