µTP

[spgeaney]

I know you guys are not utorrent. Personally i hate utorrent, witch is why i use transmission. Utorrent has this thing call µTP. Can you guys have this as well this is what they say.... I would love for this in transmission. I think it would be great for everyone. YEs some may say it slows the torrent down but make it an option to have tTP(µTP)
µTP is a new lightweight BitTorrent protocol used by µTorrent starting in µTorrent version 2.0 – it makes incredibly efficient use of network bandwidth while reducing network problems.

µTP works to maximize network throughput while reducing network latency and congestion – it is designed to slow itself down when the network is overloaded (when sending and receiving would only make things worse!) – the result is a win-win of faster downloads for users with lower network impact for both users and ISPs
µTP is user-friendly within a home network, so one computer using µTorrent will not consume the whole network for itself
µTP is an open protocol in the process of being standardized – learn more about standardization of µTP on bittorrent.org and at the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)
µTP can get through most firewalls and NATs leading to far greater peer connectivity and faster download completion

Thanks and i hope to this as an option in one of the new releases.. i check for them everyday and i'm excited to see what you guys add.

from what i've seen elsewhere on the forums, the devs are aware of it, and don't sound averse to having it in transmission, someone somewhere was talking about having a go at it maybe at some point. wait & see for now

i couldn't find it.. sorry if someone has talked about it. I think it would be a great idea

there's brief discussion in this thread about the possibility of implementing it, tho it doesn't seem to be underway yet.
