Hey guys, I don't use rtorrent myself anymore in lieu of transmission, but i still have a .rtorrent.rc from quite awhile ago when i did use it. a friend of mine had tweaked some stuff to make it a little nicer to my system back then, and it turns out i still have it. ## BSD hash read speedup (this stops thrashing on memory, disk, paging) ## However protects you massively on 900MB+ Torrent files (may need update) ## W/Safe Sync Hash check severely slow when large torrents completed ## feel free to play around with it better you crashing your box than me ## -- of course i didn't steal this from anyone ;(( #check_hash = no hash_read_ahead = 4 hash_max_tries = 2 hash_interval = 10 safe_sync = yes not sure if that would still help, silly comments notwithstanding ;) The only other part of the file that made changes other than file locations and limits would be this: # memory usage #max_memory_usage = 512 send_buffer_size = 32768 receive_buffer_size = 32768 But i'm not sure it would help to increase buffers for the problems reported ;) If this is common knowledge, or obsolete, sorry for the noise! -ryan > Ok? > > Index: libtorrent/Makefile > =================================================================== > RCS file: /cvs/ports/net/libtorrent/Makefile,v > retrieving revision 1.38 > diff -u -p -u -p -r1.38 Makefile > --- libtorrent/Makefile 18 Oct 2013 14:29:16 -0000 1.38 > +++ libtorrent/Makefile 13 May 2014 08:45:24 -0000 > @@ -1,5 +1,7 @@ > # $OpenBSD: Makefile,v 1.38 2013/10/18 14:29:16 miod Exp $ > > +BROKEN= constantly brings the system to its knees > + > COMMENT= BitTorrent library written in C++ > > # requires C++ tr1 headers > Index: rtorrent/Makefile > =================================================================== > RCS file: /cvs/ports/net/rtorrent/Makefile,v > retrieving revision 1.43 > diff -u -p -u -p -r1.43 Makefile > --- rtorrent/Makefile 21 Apr 2014 21:46:23 -0000 1.43 > +++ rtorrent/Makefile 13 May 2014 08:45:28 -0000 > @@ -1,8 +1,6 @@ > # $OpenBSD: Makefile,v 1.43 2014/04/21 21:46:23 tobiasu Exp $ > > -BROKEN-hppa = undefined references to __sync atomic ops > -BROKEN-mips64 = undefined references to __sync atomic ops > -BROKEN-sh = undefined references to __sync atomic ops > +BROKEN= constantly brings the system to its knees > > COMMENT= ncurses BitTorrent client based on libTorrent > >
