Package: rtorrent
Version: 0.8.5-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

when I wake up in the morning I usualy scan for new torrents to
download and download them into my queue directory that rtorrent
watches. Rtorrent then starts to leech all those torrents at the same
time. Since the torrents are fast enough to saturate my bandwidth each
on its own I would like to download them one after the other. That way
torrents can be seeded earlier and the filesystem would not fragment
as much.

So what I would like would be a setting to limit the number of
leeching torrents allowed and have any extra torrents queued up for
later download. The setting should be changeable at runtime as
sometimes I do have slower torrents as well. It would also be nice if
the queue order where managable. At a minimum the torrents priority
should be considered when picking the next torrent to leech.

As extra feature there could be a speed limit to say when a torrent is
"slow" and the leech limit would only count "fast" torrents. New
torrents would start of as "fast" and after maybe 5 minutes they could
drop into the "slow" group if they didn't exceed the speed limit.
