[00:36:50] *** bramm has joined #bittorrent [00:37:08] <bramm> great, erdgeist is still idling [00:37:43] *** neurodrone has joined #bittorrent [00:40:16] <TheSHAD0W> I bet utorrent is feeding ips to both the utp and tcp connection routines; the tcp routines are trying x connections at a time due to Windows' half-open limit, while the utp routines are just going *blurp* connect to everyone NOW! [00:45:41] <IRConan> TheSHAD0W: pretty much [00:45:52] <IRConan> as far as I've been led to believe [00:46:59] <TheSHAD0W> That's actually not a good thing. [00:47:06] <TheSHAD0W> It's potentially partitioning the cloud. [00:47:08] <IRConan> I know [00:47:29] <TheSHAD0W> Bram: What do you think? [00:52:59] <IRConan> it's certainly a bad thing in the private tracker world [00:53:10] <IRConan> users of other clients not using uTP can't seed [00:53:17] <IRConan> or will find it harder [00:56:58] <DreadWingKnight> as if they didn't have a hard enough time trying to compete with seedboxes [00:59:35] <The_8472> PEX ftw [00:59:41] <The_8472> oh wait, private trackers ^^ [01:00:51] <IRConan> The_8472: PEX wont help... we're talking that non-uTorrent clients and uTorrent ones will have difficulty creating connections with one another [01:01:13] <The_8472> that does not apply to incoming connections [01:01:36] <The_8472> just because they establish outgoing ones faster doesn't impose any "difficulty" for incoming connections [01:01:44] <Nolar> incoming utp handshakes would be faster :) [01:01:53] <Nolar> and fill up connection limits [01:02:14] <The_8472> proper PEX has anti-clustering :P [01:03:10] <Nolar> that help make the right attempts in the first place, but doesnt solve the utp-always-wins-because-its-the-first-foot-through-the-door [01:03:15] <The_8472> i'm just saying that PEX + optimistic disconnects causes a lot of mixing. [01:03:48] <IRConan> indeed but this is a less than ideal situation regardless [01:04:10] <Nolar> ya, would be interesting to see how much utp vs tcp clustering there is in the real world [01:04:23] <The_8472> well, on private trackers its probably worse [01:04:29] <Nolar> agreed [01:04:30] <The_8472> especially since they encourage flash crowd dynamics [01:04:35] <Nolar> and they seem to care the most [01:04:49] <The_8472> like.... 100 seeds trying to rape that poor single peer just connecting to that torrent [01:05:24] <Andrius> and the poor single peer doesn't have a connection that could download fast enough from ONE seed... [01:05:39] <The_8472> so they're basically complaining about problems they cause on their own, as usual ^^ [01:09:27] <The_8472> ohhhhhhhh [01:09:40] <The_8472> i have a nice (partial) solution to some of the ratio crap on private trackers [01:10:07] <The_8472> give credit for uploading on a torrent. give (small) negative credit over time for announcing a torrent that you're not uploading to [01:10:47] <The_8472> => seeding good, within reason [01:14:10] *** stalled has quit IRC [01:16:33] <kjetilho> what? punish people who keep old material alive? [01:17:01] <The_8472> no [01:17:01] *** stalled has joined #bittorrent [01:17:06] <The_8472> they can keep it in their queue [01:17:15] <IRConan> that doesn't work for where there's no demand for a seeder [01:17:16] <The_8472> there just no need to seed it when ther's no taker [01:17:35] <The_8472> if a peer arrives the tracker will update the scrapes and they can seed, quite simple [01:17:45] <IRConan> hmm... [01:17:54] <The_8472> it only curbs overseeding torrents that don't need it [01:17:55] <kjetilho> doh. what's the point? is there any difference between using scrape and announcing? [01:18:11] <The_8472> slowing things down, preventing flash crowds [01:18:37] *** Switeck has joined #bittorrent [01:18:39] <The_8472> it also prevents seedboxes from overwhelming anyone else's upload [01:18:44] <kjetilho> that's what gets me about those ratio enforcing maniacs: they prefer to slow down downloads! [01:18:50] <The_8472> they can't be everywhere at once, otherwise they get punished for it [01:18:54] <kjetilho> seedboxes are *good* [01:18:58] <kjetilho> they *help* people [01:19:13] <The_8472> sure, they do [01:19:21] <The_8472> but they don't need to lurk on every single swarm [01:19:32] <IRConan> my favourite thing about private trackers is that there are seedboxes on everything meaning I can get stuff fast if I want it [01:19:33] <kjetilho> if they have the capacity, why not? [01:19:35] <The_8472> they should lurk where they can actually help [01:19:40] <Switeck> private trackers are like a game of Calvin Ball -- rules change and don't necessarily match reality. [01:19:41] <The_8472> waste of resources of course [01:20:02] <kjetilho> that's for the seedbox operator to decide [01:20:29] <The_8472> <IRConan> my favourite thing about private trackers is that there are seedboxes on everything meaning I can get stuff fast if I want it <- i can do that on public torrents too. 2x 1Gbit symmetrical at the university. given enough upload public torrents work just fine [01:20:49] <The_8472> kjetilho, wasting the tracker's resources? hammering peers to shove in some extra upload? [01:20:50] <IRConan> true... but it's not as common [01:21:02] <The_8472> well, if you don't have the upload don't complain about slow downloads ^^ [01:21:08] <The_8472> that's my opinion [01:21:19] <kjetilho> wasting tracker resources?! [01:21:32] <The_8472> running hundreds of torrents at a time, yes [01:21:32] <kjetilho> it's one entry, and it's a *good* entry [01:21:33] <Andrius> The_8472, you have connection with good upload speed, don't you? [01:21:51] <The_8472> Andrius, no. the one i have here at home is horrible [01:22:52] *** stalled has quit IRC [01:23:49] <The_8472> but yes, all that ratio accounting is asinine [01:24:28] <The_8472> if you got seedboxes shoving down gigabytes of data everyone's throat then other people can't build ratios and get punished for that [01:24:40] <Andrius> your "solution" of seeding only when there are leechers doesn't really work unless everyone uses it [01:24:45] <The_8472> bittorrent itself only enforces fairness when needed, i.e. in the absense of seeds [01:25:02] <Switeck> and even then, not fully [01:25:14] <The_8472> Andrius, well... they're so great on enforcing things... it's just one more rule [01:25:47] <bramm> the real solution is for everyone to just use uTP [01:25:49] <bramm> ahem [01:25:57] <Switeck> incidentally, many private trackers spam seed ips TO seeds. [01:26:00] <Andrius> or stop using private trackers [01:26:36] <Andrius> Switeck, intentionally or just because tracker admins are idiots? [01:26:45] <IRConan> ^ my question [01:26:47] <Switeck> the latter of course XD [01:26:49] <bramm> seriously though, I can imagine situations in which a new peer winds up only having uTP connections because they close so much faster, and if enough peers really have only those it could become a problem under some circumstances [01:26:49] <The_8472> <bramm> the real solution is for everyone to just use uTP <- wrong. the real solution is to get it into TCP stacks. [01:26:54] <IRConan> I'm currently developing a tracker... [01:26:59] <IRConan> for a private site [01:27:08] <Switeck> uTP is no solution for private trackers [01:27:11] <bramm> but the number of caveats I just said make me not terribly worried about it [01:27:12] <IRConan> one of the features is intelligent peerlist generation [01:27:24] <bramm> what are you people bullshitting about private trackers and utp? [01:27:57] <IRConan> bramm: it basically seems to be being prioritised in peer selection because of max halfopen limits [01:27:57] <The_8472> oh, i'm just on one of my private trackers are managed by idiots trips ^^ [01:28:00] <bramm> 8472, how many times do I have to tell you that we're in the process of getting utp-style congestion control into TCP? Does your brain have some trouble comprehending this concept? [01:28:02] <Andrius> bramm, we're just ranting about private trackers as always [01:28:26] <The_8472> bramm, then why would you tout it as "real solution" when you're obviously working on the real solution already? [01:28:37] <Nolar> <Switeck> private trackers are like a game of Calvin Ball <<<< awesome reference :) [01:29:07] *** neurodrone has quit IRC [01:29:10] <bramm> because the real solution is available today while the real real solution will probably take a few years to wind through the beurocratic standardization processes [01:29:34] <Andrius> Nolar, it's only awesome when you get it :( [01:29:52] <The_8472> well... "the real solution is causing problems for others. but that's no problem for us, so they just have to adopt it too!" [01:29:55] <DreadWingKnight> IRConan: the only good optimization you can do at a tracker level is to not give seeds to other seeds [01:29:58] <The_8472> what kind of logic is that? [01:30:39] <IRConan> DreadWingKnight: I'm also sorting peers by "left" to provide peers with lots to share to peers with little on small swarms [01:30:45] <The_8472> DreadWingKnight, and not handing out the same peers repeatedly [01:32:17] <Nolar> Andrius http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_and_Hobbes#Calvinball [01:32:34] <The_8472> bramm, also. just because i repeat myself does not mean you have to insinuate that i have trouble with comprehending things. not everyone may have heard them yet after all. so i suggest you refrain from trying to sneak personal attacks under the radar when they're unfounded [01:33:30] <DreadWingKnight> IRConan: I'd call sorting peers by left (either way) a bad idea [01:35:41] <DreadWingKnight> there are too many factors to consider that the tracker simply doesn't have ANY information on to judge wether to give a peer to someone or not outside of the "no seeds to other seeds" thing [01:36:10] <The_8472> e.g. selective downloading [01:36:53] <The_8472> PEX normally fixes most tracker screwups, but that's not given on private trackers. so in order to maintain randomized swarms the tracker has to provide randomized peer lists [01:37:43] <The_8472> otherwise you can quickly end up with clustering, bipartite graphs or some other harmful swarm structure [01:39:04] <IRConan> hmm... interesting point [01:39:08] <Switeck> I've seen super-busy torrents on trackers that flag them intentionally as "private"...once you finish downloading, uploading becomes near impossible because finding peers is extremely hard. [01:39:26] <Switeck> on public trackers I mean [01:39:39] <Switeck> It's like the worst combination of public/private possible :P [01:41:50] *** n215 has quit IRC [01:41:58] *** n215 has joined #bittorrent [01:46:58] <IRConan> 00:33:09 < The_8472> DreadWingKnight, and not handing out the same peers repeatedly <--- this would be good but not easy [01:47:59] <The_8472> well, it's not really necessary [01:48:15] <The_8472> the more peers there are the less likely it'll become that you select the same ones at random [01:48:29] <The_8472> and the fewer peers there are the less it matters since peers will be fully connected anyway [01:49:05] <The_8472> i guess there's a window above the max # of connection for most peers where it could matter [01:49:20] <The_8472> but being random is more important than being non-redundant [01:49:48] <The_8472> if you haven't gotten enough peers with an announce... just wait for others to connect to you [01:50:05] <The_8472> unless you haven't forwarded your port [01:50:14] <The_8472> but in that case you already lost the game on private trackers anyway [01:50:15] <IRConan> in which case you should just sort that out [01:50:57] <The_8472> what you can do is testing peers for reachability [01:51:20] <IRConan> and not send unconnectible to unconnectible... [01:52:11] <The_8472> not send unconnetible, period. [01:52:58] *** stalled has joined #bittorrent [01:53:05] <IRConan> oh... ofc [01:55:41] * The_8472 pokes hydri [01:55:44] <The_8472> you forgot something [02:24:17] <bramm> 8472, utp *might* be causing problems, all I see here is speculation [02:24:36] <TheSHAD0W> I'd love to check the source code, but... [02:24:38] <TheSHAD0W> :-P [02:24:57] <bramm> you can run all the real world tests you want :-P [02:25:06] <TheSHAD0W> Mmm. [02:25:41] <TheSHAD0W> Can't do it on this machine, too much stuff running. [02:26:11] <DreadWingKnight> netgear routers might be blowing up [02:26:14] <DreadWingKnight> as are dlink [02:28:36] <Andrius> that's not a bad thing, maybe it will encourage people to get real routers instead of some weird box which can't really do anything [02:29:28] <DreadWingKnight> belkins have been bad for long enough with tcp [02:30:44] * IRConan uses a debian box to route [02:30:45] <Nolar> pretty much most home/office gateways have issues imho [02:31:33] <bramm> and utp might be causing headaches, drowsiness, and nausea. [02:32:10] <The_8472> sounds like radiation sickness [02:32:34] <Nolar> dht would probably use up more table entries [02:32:53] <The_8472> seriously though, from what i've heard it's not exactly trouble-free [02:33:01] <DreadWingKnight> the WRT54GL with good firmware (read: not linksys-issue) it's not TOO bad [02:33:27] <The_8472> i have a gl here with dd-wrt, it fares quite good with 5 DHT nodes running [02:33:30] <Nolar> i have wrt54gl at home, running linux firmware :) [02:33:34] <The_8472> and 6to4 and teredo [02:34:16] <The_8472> the 6to4 mappings are the worst, since they neither fall under udp nor tcp conntrack but some generic entries [02:34:40] <The_8472> and it has no NOTRACK traget -.- [02:34:49] <Andrius> I have a network cable plugged into my network card, works with any kind of load [02:35:19] <Switeck> Incidentally, uTorrent v1.8.x will attempt Teredo/IPv6 at its bt.connect_speed rate of 20 connections per second while its TCP peers/seeds are tried up to the net.max_halfopen limit of 8. (Default values listed!) [02:35:23] <The_8472> Andrius, if everyone had that kind of network setup we would be quite happy ^^ [02:36:16] *** swinokur has quit IRC [02:36:19] <Switeck> In a private tracker environment, this would likely created fast-connecting IPv6 clouds/swarms...which are heavily uTorrent clients. (Does Vuze and Transmission support this?) [02:36:21] <The_8472> Switeck, does windows count ipv6 connections towards its half open limit? [02:36:27] <Switeck> of course not [02:36:47] <Switeck> at least for Teredo/IPv6, they're UDP [02:36:59] <The_8472> no, they aren't [02:37:14] <DreadWingKnight> regular IPv6 isn't udp [02:37:14] <Switeck> my bad then XD [02:37:28] <Switeck> native IPv6 isn't udp true :P [02:37:29] <DreadWingKnight> the tunnels are [02:37:32] <The_8472> terdeo is just tunnled over UDP [02:38:11] <The_8472> anyway, private trackers == no pex, no dht == significantly less ipv6 connectivity [02:38:21] <The_8472> you have to live on the handshakes (which we do support) [02:38:54] <The_8472> but we're not setting the socket protection thingy on teredo sockets (no such API in java) [02:39:12] <The_8472> so it's mostly outgoing teredo or fully reachable 6to4 [02:39:29] <Switeck> http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=57989 [02:40:21] <The_8472> yeah, handshakes [02:40:41] <The_8472> not really useful without PEX [02:40:46] <The_8472> since you can only use it for reconnects [03:01:55] <TheSHAD0W> http://panopticlick.eff.org/ [03:11:39] <The_8472> that thing doesn't work [03:11:55] <The_8472> i tested myself several times and each time i became less... unique [03:12:02] <The_8472> despite having the same IP, browser and all [03:13:15] <The_8472> ... just press F5 [03:14:16] <The_8472> only one in 31,651 browsers have the same fingerprint as yours. [03:14:17] <The_8472> one in 28,774 browsers have the same fingerprint as yours. [03:14:30] <The_8472> one in 26,376 browsers have the same fingerprint as yours. [03:14:37] <TheSHAD0W> Probably not storing IP, so it's re-checking. [03:14:42] <The_8472> one in 24,348 browsers have the same fingerprint as yours. [03:14:43] <The_8472> ... [03:15:11] <The_8472> well, that makes their "database" pretty useless if it's not eleminating redundant entries [03:15:30] <TheSHAD0W> Yeah, but it's a security issue if they keep your IP. [03:15:40] <The_8472> they could keep a hash of it [03:15:54] *** swinokur has joined #bittorrent [03:16:05] <TheSHAD0W> Calculating 4 billion hashes isn't that big a deal any more. [03:16:11] <The_8472> salt it [03:16:19] <TheSHAD0W> Then they couldn't match it. [03:16:32] <Andrius> I don't really see your issue here, it doesn't show random stuff if I refresh [03:16:34] <The_8472> you'd just have to match it against all salts [03:16:46] <TheSHAD0W> Then it's still calculable. [03:17:12] <TheSHAD0W> Hm. [03:17:19] <TheSHAD0W> Unless you salted it with the response data... [03:17:41] <The_8472> Andrius, the point is that it does not provide meaninful numbers since they're not cleaned of redundancies [03:17:54] <The_8472> if pressing F5 even dilutes the set [03:18:40] <The_8472> the number decreases because i am counted against the previous me's [03:19:16] <The_8472> so it basically underreports uniqueness, exactly the thing that it's meant to report [03:24:18] *** danohuiginn has quit IRC [03:25:56] *** Andrius has quit IRC [03:35:20] *** edigaryev has joined #bittorrent [03:43:05] *** MarkProffitt has joined #bittorrent [03:50:22] *** edigaryev has quit IRC [04:02:10] *** The_8472 has quit IRC [04:05:34] *** The_8472 has joined #bittorrent [04:16:10] *** WhereMan has joined #bittorrent [04:16:45] *** WhatMan has quit IRC [04:54:34] *** MarkProffitt has left #bittorrent [05:36:40] *** senex has joined #bittorrent [05:44:02] *** init0 has quit IRC [05:46:12] *** init0 has joined #bittorrent [05:48:25] *** goussx has quit IRC [06:03:27] *** senex has quit IRC [06:23:09] *** goussx has joined #bittorrent [06:43:19] *** MassaRoddel has quit IRC [06:44:29] *** KyleK_ has joined #bittorrent [06:50:10] *** KyleK_ has quit IRC [06:52:37] *** erk has quit IRC [06:54:28] *** erk has joined #bittorrent [07:00:21] *** _rafi_ has joined #bittorrent [07:10:55] *** senex has joined #bittorrent [07:14:45] *** MassaRoddel has joined #bittorrent [07:28:46] *** senex has quit IRC [07:30:24] *** GTHK has quit IRC [07:32:03] *** Switeck has quit IRC [07:54:21] *** chelz has joined #bittorrent [08:14:44] *** _rafi2_ has joined #bittorrent [08:16:31] *** _rafi_ has quit IRC [08:30:03] *** fjl9 has joined #bittorrent [08:32:33] <fjl9> Hey guys, small question: is it advisable downloading multiple large torrents (let's say about 5 of them -- about 50 GB each) simultaneously? the disk having to write things like that makes me wonder if downloading each individually one at a time would be a better idea [08:45:09] *** Miller` has quit IRC [08:52:51] *** fjl9 has quit IRC [08:56:47] *** bramm has quit IRC [09:05:54] *** _rafi_ has joined #bittorrent [09:08:18] *** _rafi2_ has quit IRC [09:55:23] *** _rafi2_ has joined #bittorrent [09:57:45] *** _rafi_ has quit IRC [10:12:13] *** Andrius has joined #bittorrent [10:12:22] *** danohuiginn has joined #bittorrent [10:14:11] *** DaveInPhx has joined #bittorrent [10:15:08] <DaveInPhx> hi, anyone awake?

[11:59:08] *** senex has quit IRC [12:01:44] *** KyleK_ has joined #bittorrent [12:02:35] <chelz> haha [12:02:50] <chelz> ' installling and activating w7 ultimate on ypu tube...using a bittirrent' [12:03:05] <chelz> awesome [12:03:22] <Balsaq> maybe it was a hoax? newbie to all this?

[12:44:39] *** Balsaq has quit IRC [12:50:32] *** chelz has quit IRC [13:32:21] *** henrikl has joined #bittorrent [13:33:54] <henrikl> I'm trying to get some stats out of opentracker (tpbs, bencoded), but the infohashes look very strange (e.g. "\xaf\x9ety\xd3a\x8a\x1b\x1b\x89T\xee@\x8b\xb6\x1d\xbb!\xfa\xa5"). Any ideas on how I can get those over to a "readable" string? [13:41:03] <Andrius> infohash isn't a readable string [13:41:07] <DreadWingKnight> is that the raw data or the stuff pre-parsed by whatever you're using? [13:58:24] <henrikl> DreadWingKnight: It's the data I got from running the raw stuff through bencode.bdecode (Python lib) [13:59:06] <Andrius> henrikl, what do you expect infohash to look like? [13:59:22] <henrikl> DreadWingKnight: Here's the entire thing: http://dpaste.com/159892/ [13:59:46] <DreadWingKnight> ok, that's parsed, not raw [14:00:15] <henrikl> Andrius: I was thinking more like the SHA1-rep of the infohashes. But if I run these infohashes through sha.new(s).hexdigest(), I still couldn't match them to the ones stored in the db. [14:02:43] <henrikl> DreadWingKnight: Here's the raw data: http://dpaste.com/159893/ [14:03:40] <DreadWingKnight> the raw data looks right [14:03:55] <DreadWingKnight> so something in your parser is doing stuff wrong [14:04:25] <henrikl> DreadWingKnight: Weird.. Do you have the ability to check the raw data in your parser? [14:04:48] <henrikl> I've tried three different parsers, all give the same representation [14:06:37] <DreadWingKnight> try the dumptorrentcgi.php from DeHackEd's tracker package [14:10:17] *** senex has quit IRC [14:39:46] *** edigaryev has quit IRC [14:55:22] *** edigaryev has joined #bittorrent [14:57:43] *** edigaryev has quit IRC [15:18:07] <TheSHAD0W> http://www.clickorlando.com/news/22568860/detail.html [15:57:07] *** edigaryev has joined #bittorrent [16:02:03] *** _rafi2_ has joined #bittorrent [16:02:59] *** edigaryev has quit IRC [16:04:32] *** _rafi_ has quit IRC [16:14:52] *** edigaryev has joined #bittorrent [16:19:58] *** n215 has quit IRC [16:21:40] *** KyleK_ has joined #bittorrent [16:24:23] *** n215 has joined #bittorrent [16:41:05] *** KyleK_ has quit IRC [17:08:49] *** _rafi2_ has quit IRC [17:10:19] *** _rafi_ has joined #bittorrent [17:11:11] *** goussx has quit IRC [17:50:57] *** goussx has joined #bittorrent [18:01:32] *** void^ has joined #bittorrent [18:11:28] *** KyleK_ has joined #bittorrent [18:44:28] *** WhereMan is now known as WhatMan [18:50:42] *** neurodrone has joined #bittorrent [19:08:45] <alus> A9: sorry I was away. was your questioned answered?

[23:42:59] <semaphore> utorrent is fine, yeah [23:43:35] *** Miller` has quit IRC [23:49:00] <DreadWingKnight> I would get it from their official site rather than cnet [23:54:06] *** burris has quit IRC [23:54:27] <Balsaq> is that i good way to avoid spyware? (official sit) [23:55:37] <Balsaq> is that a safer way to download, from the official site...or is it better software? [23:55:53] <DreadWingKnight> safer way to download it [23:55:59] <Balsaq> ty [23:56:09] <mpl> Balsaq: not only spyware, but non official site rarely provide means of verifying the integrity, like an md5/sha1 sum. [23:56:26] <Balsaq> o [23:56:36] <Balsaq> thats a biggie [23:56:59] <mpl> not that ppl check hashes anyway... [23:56:59] <Balsaq> now if i only knew what that was... [23:57:26] <alus> haha [23:57:52] <alus> mpl: why would a malicious site not just include the md5/sha1 of their hacked binary? [23:58:10] <mpl> alus: true. [23:59:55] <mpl> alus: still, you can use the hash also to check for integrity in general, ie that the download went fine, not only for malicious additions.
