I have about 75 torrents seeding from a NTFS drive, and Transmission is dying on me about 1-2 times each day. Restarting Transmission by clicking "Save" in the BT config window works fine and everything works for a while.

I have tried to change the watchdog settings, but nothing change - it quietly dies and the seeding stops.

I have been using builds 088-AIO and 093-AIO and they behave the same.

Is 75 torrents too many torrents to handle? (Wouldn't surprise me)

Is there any reason to believe that the NTFS driver is a culprit - would it work better if I used an ext3 drive?

Many thanks for any thoughts on the subject!

Tomas

i use only 4-5 torrents of big files 4 Gb, 10 Gb of size and when i put more i see that the cpu and the mem are important and all go slow comparing to the normal time.

¿You have swap? to use this many torrents, perhaps the problem is the use of the mem.

Sorry for my english, i'm not native.-

Don't worry about the English - it was just fine!

It somehow feels like a memory problem. I have been monitoring the RAM use, and it doesn't seem too bad, but it may of course become critical every now and then.

If I need swap I suppose I just have to bite the bullet and repartition and reformat my drive - since NTFS access is sooooo slow a swap file on NTFS wouldn't do much good...
