nigelelliott394 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 couldn't we just use peer injection and inject the IP's of the seeders on the pink torrent to the big cat one?

RTA Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I snagged it off the bay and had no problems, only took me about five hours. It restored to my second mac just fine, and I was able able to archive and install over Tiger, I'm back to seeding full speed now.

nigelelliott394 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 it's sickening whenever people saunter on to the queue ages after we all did and get it in a few hours whilst the rest of us have to wait a few days Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/54625-its-on-the-bay/page/7/#findComment-391893 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTA Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I think it was just pushing 800 leechers when I started, and it started out real slow, anywhere from 0 down to around 20kb/s, so I decided to take a nap. I woke up and it was averaging at a steady 200kb/s down. It finished pretty quick after that.

RTA Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Well, I'm not doing anything that relies heavily on my bandwidth tonight, just going to be watching the Stargate reruns on Scifi that I recorded, so I'll leave it up and seeding at the very least well into tomorrow. I usually max out at about 55kb/s up so it's not much, but I'm doing what I can.

teehee Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 its not a problem with the torrent or tracker... its about how BT works... it depends mainly on your own settings once the file is well seeded (which is it now) i got the whole file in 3 hours 700kb - 1.2mb down 300 up Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/54625-its-on-the-bay/page/7/#findComment-391985 Share on other sites More sharing options...

vpsvps Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 88, but i'm using three simutaniose torrent files on two clients saving to the same .dmg Does that even work?? My settings were bad, so I spent the first 12 hours getting my tail kicked around the bittorrent block (1.5kb/s), but even now I'm only averaging ~25.

iDarbert Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 i'm no guru, but my guess is to start a new torrent, pause it, replace the half-finished dmg with yours, then quit the torrent client and restart it. again, just a guess. The best way though is to remove the torrent from your clients queue and redownload (or reopen it if you still have it on your HDD) and tell it to save the files where the complete .dmg is.
