Long-Time Seeding Question

Version 1.06, under options on Long-Time seeding, the line below explains "Enable Long-Time seeding Can download faster, But also your stopped task will keep seeding.".

Single 22gig torrent still downloading, I noticed enabling LT seeding makes the download slower. It affects the normal P2P download/upload mainly. With LT seeding option ON, a big chunk of my Upload bandwidth goes to LT-seed from my P2P connections. So the 22gig downloading is slower as other peers are looking at my slow uploads to them.

With Long-time seeding options OFF, all the upload bandwidth is shared with other peers in P2P connection, and Im looking at a noticeable faster D/L speed.

So does Long-Time seeding really give faster Download speed? Other peers sharing files with me are seeing me uploading slow to them, and I do not believe them, with various torrent clients will know I am LT seeding sharing my downloaded content in that torrent.

Not my main this part, "Enable Long-Time seeding Can download faster, But also your stopped task will keep seeding.". Nope, other completed torrents doesnt seem to be seeding, just showing [+] --- bt_disconnects (number).

IS Long-Time Seeding affect any ratio in torrent's website?? my torrent client always have maximum speed of uploading but when i look at those peer status, they doesn't upload anything .. I mean it doesn't upload anything at all and my ratio in torrent website is ruined because of that.

Torrent sites that track ratios use private torrents. When you download a private torrent, LTseed is disabled, as is dht, and peer exchange.

LTseed is only used to download/upload with other bitcomet peers who have this option enabled. It can increase your download speed, but if its allowed to use too much of your upload, then you can experience slowed download from bt p2p peers, as you state.

It is important with any bittorrent client that you adjust the settings to match your linespeed, and you should also limit how much bandwidth you allow LT seeding to use.
