@john32123666 Thank you. I'm guessing my issue might just have to do with OS Ventura eating up more resources because with previous OS's, I never had this problem. But what you say makes sense.

Thanks,

@frostycab Thanks for the reply. I guess I was asking if I was being throttled or if the newest update to Ventura had some kind of anti-piracy feature that was slowing me down. It doesn't seem that either is the case. From what you're saying, I'm guessing that Ventura just eats up more memory or processing power. In the previous OS X versions, I never had this issue. I could download and watch Netflix and surf.

Hope you enjoy your new connection.

I'm on OX X Ventura, the newest release. Since the change I've experienced extremely slow connection when I have my torrent client, Transmission, running in the back ground. I was wondering why and if there is anything I can do about it.

Also, I've noticed the torrents I'm seeding aren't really uploading and so my ratio is quickly changing. Is this connected to what's happening with with my upload/download rates?

Example:

Without Transmissions running, I get UL of 9mps/DL of 16mps.

With Transmissions running, I get UL of 1.5mps/DL of 2mps
But the upload download speeds in Tranmissions is only about 50kps/1mps.

(Looks like I can't edit my own comment.)

I wanted to add, that when Transmissions is on, using the net becomes impossible. Everything slows so that I can't even watch YouTube on the lowest setting.
