Transmission

Hi, I've this server with 100/100 line so i can upload and download 10MB/sec at the same time.

this server has ubuntu running and I installed my favourite torrent client Transmission, the thing is that if I caped the upload speed of one torrent to 2MB/sec the download will drop from 10MB/sec to 3-2MB, and as soon as I uncap the upload speed the download will jump to 10MB.

So is there anyway to deal with this ? i don't want to lose all my upload bandwidth to one torrent because it has too many leeches.

That is likely 'tit-for-tat' which is how bittorrenting works. Peers-per-torrent and upload slots are configurable.

I know how bittorrenting works, but at home my upload speed won't cross 100Kb/s and my download would hit 1.7Mb/s. so why capping my upload on my server to 2Mb will slow the download to 2-3Mb
