Ever since upgrading to 2.22, Transmission seems to be crashing when I decide to pause a torrent. The UI will freeze, Activity Monitor will show it "not responding", and for some reason it causes the disk to write at a constant 60-80 MB/s. This has happened with both 320GB-7200 and 1TB-5200 Western Digital HDDs.
Anyone else experiencing this problem?
Crash when pausing torrents
Re: Crash when pausing torrents
Transmission didn't seem to crash like this before. And for what it's worth, no other BT client behaves like this.x190 wrote:You need to be patient. Just let T do its thing and it should clear in a few minutes at most. Caches have to be written to disk and, sometimes unresponsive, trackers need to be notified.
"Writing caches to disk" and "notifying trackers" aren't processes that should crash the app.
It wouldn't be so bad if Transmission didn't hog the HDD (constant disk writing at 60-70MB/s) while it was "doing it's thing." As of now when it crashes, any other process/app that calls the HDD is extremely laggy.
Re: Crash when pausing torrents
Just to be clear, when you say "crash" do you mean "the system freezes and the hard drive is very busy"?
If we're talking about an actual crash, rather than just a freeze, could you please post an OS X crash report? That would be very helpful to track down the crash.
