Maximize Upload
jaybug:
Mm, thanks. I was kind of close to those numbers through trial and error. Now to just give it some time and see how it does.

Connections:
Global Max. 2000
Max. # peers per 100
Upload slots per 200
I made these changes yesterday, in the midst of my forum posting some time. My rate has seemed to steady out.
Funny, the highest seeds/peers ration torrent I have is the one from BBT. Lucky 13. Two torrents are infinite, as thou shalt not divide by zero.
The torrents here need to be paused when my wife wants to check her email, or surf/shop. She isn't too quick to resume them, as she really doesn't care. sigh
0.5Mb, and you call it sucky? Phhbbbt! I should be so lucky. I get 0.3 on a good day, and torrents paused. on speed test. Still I wish I could get closer to 0.3 from 0.08.
So what sort of upload rates are you seeing roughly, of an individual torrent of your 96? Of my 21 I range between ( and this is only of those which are actively uploading only, why count zero?) is around 1 on the low side to between 10-20Kbps on the high side. Note, I just realized that utorrent is using kB/s not kb/s.

0.5Mbps is a max of 64 kBps. Crap, I used the wrong letter. My bad. I'd love to have a 0.5MBps connection.
When you said you uploaded at around 87-90 kbps I assumed you meant kBps, as most clients use B instead of b (unless you change this in the settings or something if it is available, which I believe it is in uTorrent) and it would be pointless to do the conversion from B to b.
Either way, though, here in North America our connections are dwarfed by connections in, for example, Japan and Europe. At least our connections are usually better than in, say, Australia.
You should limit your up speed to about 60-70% of your ISP's quoted up speed if you want to use the Internet for other things while you torrent. Mind you, if you game online, you'd probably wanna just pause everything. Otherwise, 60% or so is pretty decent.
Eh, guess Foxkeh got that before I did. 8)
Those numbers look pretty good for your speed.
As for upload rates, the highest I see is around 5 or so kBps at any one time.
When I download anime from other sources and seed them (I always seed back public torrents to at least 0.5), they usually suck up all the upload bandwidth, and so my BBT torrents slow to around 1-2kBps max... most of them are a fraction of 1kBps when it gets heavy.
It's the combined global upload that really counts, though.

Well, it's been nigh unto 24 hours since I made the changes according to that calculator. Upload speed overall seems to be about the same. But somehow I don't think the Azureus calculator doesn't fir exactly for uTorrent client. I mean that I have put down 4 for the maximum number of torrents, and 10 are running now. ( Which makes me wonder if any of them which I have force started in the past, may be still in force, even after being paused.)
One torrent is trying to go at over 30, and a couple are less than 1. No, the torrent I have from BBT is not the one running at 30. And I am not going to pause all the others to see if I can get it higher. I am pretty sure it wouldn't.
Not sure if I like this setting better or not. I was hoping that 4 meant 4, but...
K7IA:
^ did you try prioritizing BBT torrents through higher bandwidth allocation.
BuriaL:
Sorry Xiong..i dont like that calculator. The reason is:
It might be a simple calculation in theory. Thats just what it is, theory.
This calculator dont account for the traffic. Like if youre connected to me, utorrent sends requests, maybe looses some stuff on the way, lags.. And if the torrent is made up of 256kB pices..more traffic.
The calculator says 288 connections / torrent, and 1200 global..
I dont get why i would want to choke the connection to "snail mode" to have ALOT more connections than i need.
I have 400 global, and for downloading 1 torrent from BBT i need maximum 10 of those.
I never set more than 200 connections for one torrent. And i reserve 100-200kB(for the traffic, not the DL) for those so i dont choke.
