optimal upload and download settings

[Malcon]

Hello, i have a question about setting Upload increase and Download decrease levels. As I understand, if i will set it both to 100% it will mean that i will upload more than 100% and download less than 100%, am I right?
What are the optimal settings for this?

Hello, Malcon! Yes, you are right. If you'll set Upload Increase level to 100% and Download decrease level to 100% it will means that your uploaded traffic will more than 100% (i.e. increase 2 times) and download one less than 100% (i.e. decrease 2 times).

Optimal values depends on your current torrent ratio. You know, than higher will be difference between uploaded and downloaded traffic, than higher will be your ratio.
But, don't be greedy If your ratio is enough for downloading, you don't need to use program all time you downloading files.

Hello.

Do you see the torrent tracker on the list? It should show real and faked traffic for uploading and downloading. The faked traffic sent to the torrent tracker. Many trackers have recent stats and you can see and compare values.

in TRK (monster), I see that my numbers stay the same as I hit the reset button on the computer by mistake and when I reboot, they stay the same. I am using Vuze and it apears that my Torrent tracker updates once a day (or at least they state that my Ratio is updated daily). How does all of this actually happen. Does the TRK keep the numbes and report when the torrent does, or have I lost my data if the computer got shut off before it was reported?

Forgive me if I do not know alot about this, but interestingly enough, your product and testing of it is forcing me to learn more. Thanks.

You can reset TRK counters to see stats clear (lets say you changed account and want to see stats for new account only). These counters doesn't affect the tracker and useful for watching your ratio boosting.

Torrent Ratio Keeper changes traffic reports from your Torrent Client. If Vuze cannot report to tracker about download or uploaded data, then tracker cannot count it. TRK doesn't store any data about torrents (just tracker names and settings). If you have any questions feel free to ask.
