Stalled torrents
-
I'm getting a lot of stalled torrents when I start downloading them. I'm using qbittorrent v4.1.2, any suggestions on how to fix this would be great. Thanks

I'm not exactly sure how you define "stalled," but I find that many torrents seem to take some time to start downloading. I think it's a "feature" of the system, not of users, because sometimes there can be a dozen or more download-peers, like me, all "connected" but still at 0.0%. Things eventually get moving after a few minutes, or sometimes as much as a half hour. I can only recall one time when everyone seemed stalled out for days (and all at 0.0%), and I deleted the torrent and moved on.
So, bottom line is I don't think you need to/can tweak anything with your system…just be patient and the stuff will come.

Torrents don't stall nearly as often as they did years ago…
but still, I don't understand why some torrents go 22mb / second.. while other's creep along at 2k per second. Even a dial up modem is typically 56k. 22mb is 22000k
