Seeding speed for BakaBT torrents slow, though normal for other trackers
« on: January 24, 2011, 02:07:58 PM »
Hi,

I've downloaded a bunch of BakaBT torrents (~20) with uTorrent and am currently dedicating my computer to seeding only BakaBT torrents all day. I've checked the FAQs and I've looked at all the fixes.

However, I've noticed that my upload speed is not what it usually is.
My upload speeds range from 100 kb/s to 300 kb/s for about 20 torrents and a high number of leachers. However, when I use torrents with other trackers (Nyaatorrents), the speeds range from 4-6 mb/s upload, which seems right for my connection.

My downloads seem to be normal though. I can get from 2-8 mb/s.


Thanks.

It looks like the torrents you are seeding all have many seeders per leecher.
Your reduced upload speed is a result of heavy competition with other seeders for packet requests.
This is pretty normal for BakaBT.  We luvs to seed 'em!  :)

Yeah, the seed to peer ratio seems to be most of the time more than 1:1 compared to most of torrents for other trackers.

My upload speeds can't seem to keep up with my download speed, even though it should easily be able to.
As a result, my ratio is really low and I've been warned. lol

You have been a member for almost a day? Give it some time. Let torrents seed a bit. Are you telling me that you have watched everything you have downloaded so far and are needing to download more to satisfy your obvious anime addiction?

Our torrents require you to seed a bit longer since they have such excellent ratios. Perhaps you should read a little into this.

Odd, you have only been here a day and have not surpassed the 25GB threshold yet.
Anyway , its quite natural that when you first join you will have a low ratio but beleive it or not, it does not take long to upload a reasonable amount. If you want to find a way to ensure more consisant upload speeds try downloading and then seeding large freeleech torrents. For me atleast, they are my more active torrents.

Most of the people here would kill to get 100 kB/s up.

That's only with the BakaBT torrents. lol I have other torrents too, mainly NyaaTorrents. (209.8GB/61GB, Ratio: 3.44 for the 8 torrents I have trackeable)

No, I just wanted to seed and utilize my connection to its full potential.

My point was more of a "don't complain" than anything. Usually, only people using seedboxes can get upload rates higher than 50KBps, seeding only BBT torrents.
