Issues with seeding. 4.6 GB for this week, seeding 24/7.

Hi.

I have issues with seeding. I'd like to contribute as much as I can but it seems that I'm only uploading about 30 KB/sec for all the 29 torrents I have active and seeding.

My connection speed is quite good, which is 100 Mbit Download and 10 Mbit Upload. However, I am soon going to upgrade to 100/100 since network is very cheap in Sweden where I'm at now.

I've grabbed a few freeleech torrents and tried to grab a few bonus ones, however, the bonus ones seems impossible to download. My network should be able to seed at ~ 1 MB/sec and my download speed is usually 11.7 MB/sec. Also, I just grabbed another freeleech just now and it seems to be stuck at 1 MB download for some reason. EDIT: Nvm, it spiked up to 9 MB/sec now.

Are there any tips & tricks to make me able to contribute as much as possible. Since I've only seeded 4.6 GB for this week having it seeding 24/7. My ratio is currently 1.081. Total download: 512.05 GB. Total Upload: 553.32 GB.

Also, are there anything I can do for you guys regarding the website? I'm a PHP coder as of now and stepping up towards C++ now in January 2013.

And yes, I have read the FAQ.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,
Sven.

Every torrent you are seeding is overseeded....apart from the Naruto Shippuden one. If you want to try seed a lot, my tip would be ignore anything with over 100 seeds.

Am seeding 355 torrents, and only 4 of them are over 100 seeds. Seeding loads of hentai works good as well, gets tons of hit and runs.

While I'm sure you've heard most of these, here's some general tips:
- Seed as many individual torrents as possible.  This increases the odds one or more will actually be active at any given time.  Currently I have 115 seeding on BakaBT, and my upload pipe stays maxed most of the time.
- If using a decent client (for example, Vuze, qBittorrent, uTorrent), increase both your maximum total connections AND max connections per torrent to the same number; also make sure "Use more upload slots if upload speed is < 90%" (uTorrent's phrasing, other clients will vary) is enabled, as well.  Don't worry, this will NOT cause one torrent to choke off all of the others!  Instead, if few torrents are actually active, they can use many more of the available connections.

Most relatively modern PCs will have no problems at all running 500-1000 total connections at once, but you CAN start to chug your system if you overdo it.  Just keep an eye out, it'll be obvious if it happens.  Currently, on a Core2Quad at 3.0 GHz, I can run at least 1000 connections without noticeable framerate hits when gaming at the same time.
- Try to especially target torrents for download that have just been released and are still in their non-Power-User "blackout" period.  This almost guarantees a decent positive ratio boost.
- Sort the torrent pool by leechers, and download those that have the most =) .

Make sure, BTW, that you cap uploads at 80-85% of your actual maximum capacity, at least as long as you're downloading anything or using the internet for anything else.  If you max your actual upload capacity, your DOWNloads will suffer a great deal, as well as general net activity; this is a limitation of TCP/IP.

Hope at least some of that helps!  Good luck.

Edit --> Frankly, I have a ratio of 2.087 currently (4199.25 GB up, 2012 GB down) without actively trying to select any torrents for upload "suitability".  I mainly just plain keep as many seeding as I can for as long as possible, while allowing many connections ^^' .
