Say, wouldn't 60 seconds be better than 1800? [09:32:10] <uriel> better for what? [09:32:19] <alus> Milos: http://wiki.theory.org/BitTorrentSpecification#Tracker_Response [09:32:25] <kjetilho> 60 is higher than 1800? [09:32:47] <alus> Milos: well, if you have too many peers, then 60 seconds is too much load [09:33:01] <Milos> alus, too much load on whose side? [09:33:11] <alus> on the tracker [09:33:31] <Milos> So why is this a client option then? [09:33:43] <alus> in which client? [09:34:02] <Milos> Well, bittornado. [09:34:09] <alus> I imagine it's max(client_setting, tracker_setting) [09:35:02] <Milos> Hang on so, if someone starts seeding something then it will take up to 1800 seconds for someone to know about the new seeder? [09:35:10] <Milos> someone else, rather. [09:36:49] <kjetilho> Milos: no, min-interval is usually 300 seconds [09:37:09] <Milos> kjetilho, so what's the re-request interval then... [09:37:23] <kjetilho> Milos: the normal interval when the client has enough peers already [09:37:32] <Milos> kjetilho, ah I see. [09:37:38] <Milos> Hmm okay. [09:37:46] <Milos> Thanks, I think that will do :) [09:38:14] <mpl> hmm it's really nice that with rtorrent on can change on the fly the address it is bound to. Do most clients do that? [09:43:59] <alus> Milos: up to 1800 seconds, but that's a max. 900 on average, and that's from the tracker. once even the first person hears of the seed and connects then they'll PEX it on average in 30 seconds [09:44:18] <alus> Milos: then more avg 30 second hops, until it reaches the whole network [09:44:51] <alus> and I doubt there are 30 hops in any network [09:45:59] <alus> and to the people with full peer lists, data will flow from the seeder instead [09:46:12] <alus> BT is quite redundant [09:48:26] *** rrr has joined #bittorrent [09:58:37] *** Handhelda is now known as handheldpenguin [10:01:28] *** The_8472 has joined #bittorrent [10:08:56] *** GTHK has quit IRC [10:09:48] *** GTHK has joined #bittorrent [10:13:10] *** waldorf_ has joined #bittorrent [10:28:27] *** bbelt16ag has quit IRC [10:34:17] *** GTHK_ has joined #bittorrent [10:41:22] <Milos> alus, I see.

[14:45:00] <yt2005> is there a "no seriously do a real hash check" menu option in utorrent that i'm missing?
