Weird untability while uploading... Hdd issues or noise on the line?

Okay, I finally came to a conclusion (I think <.< ).


I think it is my asus eeepc 901 that is the issue. It is a little weakling of a 9'' laptop with an old, very bugged and slow windows XP installation on it. It DOES have 2 gb of ram, but that means little to the machine, when the rest of it is banged up, it seems...

Well, I did plan to reformat it and install Linux Arc, but I also need a torrent client as good as uTorrent (with webUi and stuff like that) but I have not found one yet for Linux -.-  (maybe you know one)?


Well, if a reformat doesn't work, I promise to bump this thread! Thank you both for your help and focus on my problem :D

BAH - forget what i freakin' said, its the same now, even on my enthusiast stationary pc, consuming 400 watts -.-

I am gonna buy a new drive when i get a job... It is so annoying having no money!

Make sure your pref settings are within the limit of your hds/OS limit... less upload slots per torrent, global maximum connections not set too high, etc...

(might be that your HD isn't able to do all the disk read/writes required and OS puts your torrent client on "hold" for disk access, until it ready to do more read/writes)

and it will visible in your "System Event Logs" as a "Warning" with source "disk"

My Computer > Manage > Event Viewer > System

hdd IO errors can delay software access and should be visible through the logs.

[edit] but I have to say the volatility is way too systematic for a random hdd glitch, as if bounces from a point above ~180 kb/s which somehow creates a frequency in this volatility. It may be bad sectors , but it would show up a torrent hash check. May be you should cap you upload in utorrent to 150 kb/s and observe what happens.

very weird :P

I hate trying to solve problems on a computer that I can not put my hands on  :D

Learn to love rtorrent.  It has a multitude of web frontends, but I haven't used any, so I can't give a recommendation.

BTG has a most promising philosophy, but I can't say anything about how well it works.  The last time I used it was 0.9, I think, and not only has 1.0 released, but there are RCs for 2.0.
