So if you need to choose, stop the seeding torrents that have the most seeds and highest availability between all the peers first. It's better for others to seed when there's NEED (no other seeds) than when there's lots of seeds.
#UTORRENT SEEDING TIME TORRENT#
If you have to, you can stop or pause a seeding torrent for awhile and restart it later. And in the long run, that will "waste" lots of bandwidth with failed torrents. If people don't do this, BitTorrent DIES.and torrents will fail to complete. Beyond that, it's up to you if you can spare the bandwidth. Like torrero said, it is best and customary to upload at least to 1:1 ratio. There's no reason to stop them just to do that.
#UTORRENT SEEDING TIME UTORRENT#
You can play the downloaded file/s and even copy/burn the downloaded file/s once it finishes downloading.even WHILE uTorrent is seeding it. Often tracker errors are temporary, so the best thing to do is just wait and leave the client open to continue trying. If a tracker goes down during a torrent (i.e., you have already connected at some point and are already talking to peers), you will be able to continue transferring with those peers, but no new peers will be able to contact you. Periodically throughout the transfer, your machine will check in with the tracker, telling it how much you've downloaded and uploaded, how much you have left before finishing, and the state you're in (starting, finished download, stopping.) If a tracker is down and you try to open a torrent, you will be unable to connect. When you open a torrent, your machine contacts the tracker and asks for a list of peers to contact. For example, if you start a BitTorrent client and it tells you that you're connected to 10 peers and 3 seeds, then the swarm consists of you and those 13 other people.Ī server on the Internet that acts to coordinate the action of BitTorrent clients. The group of machines that are collectively connected for a particular file.
Usually a request for a reseed comes with an implicit promise that the requester will leave his or her client open for some time period after finishing (to add longevity to the torrent) in return for the kind soul reseeding the file. When this happens, someone with a complete file (a seed) must connect to the swarm so that those missing pieces can be transferred. When there are zero seeds for a given torrent (and not enough peers to have a distributed copy), then eventually all the peers will get stuck with an incomplete file, since no one in the swarm has the missing pieces. Remember, the tracker doesn't know anything of the actual contents of a file, so it's important to follow through and seed a file if you upload the torrent to a tracker. Also, when a new torrent is posted to a tracker, someone must seed it in order for it to be available to others. Generally, it's considered good manners to continue seeding a file after you have finished downloading, to help out others. You can also start a BT client with a complete file, and once BT has checked the file it will connect and seed the file to others. Once your client finishes downloading, it will remain open until you click the Finish button (or otherwise close it.) This is known as being a seed or seeding.

Some people also refer to peers as leeches, to distinguish them from those generous folks who have completed their download and continue to leave the client running and act as a seed.Ī computer that has a complete copy of a certain torrent. Generally a peer does not have the complete file, otherwise it would be called a seed. You should seed until at least 1.000 Ratio.Ī peer is another computer on the internet that you connect to and transfer data.
