Granted it did actually work after that long startup period (same system, same NVMe fast storage for its installation location like uTorrent).Ībout a year later I tried a more recent qBittorrent which this time opened in under 1 minute with the same volume of torrents, I thought it was a great improvement. When I tried importing my torrents to qBittorrent it took over an hour to open and continued to take that long to open every time I restarted the computer. It even starts up and shows me all my torrents in under 30 seconds. Like if I use qBittorrent or Deluge, they work great up-to a certain number of torrents then they start to fall down where as uTorrent 2.2.1 keeps working fine for 5-10x as many torrents (really).Īt the moment I have 11,500 torrents in a single uTorrent 2.2.1 and it works perfectly. I'm still using uTorrent 2.2.1 and the only reason is because every time I try alternatives they are buggy to the point of being unusable.
You can make hybrid torrents though so it doesn't really make sense to make v2 torrents only. With v2, torrent metadata is smaller, which cuts latency when we add a magnet link since fewer bytes need to be downloaded before the torrent download can start.
This means that v2 torrents download faster and they are more reliable. V2 can do more though, particularly avoiding having to download large parts of a file if a hash check fails. Most clients are 32mb or 64mb piece size though, 2tb data and 4tb data.īitTorrent v2 initially started as a project to move torrents from SHA-1 encryption algorithm to SHA-256, that is, a way to improve the safe hash algorithm that keeps the parts of the torrents that we download. Other clients can handle piece sizes up to, iirc, 1gb which gives them a maximum data size within the. People have made torrents with more data in them than uTorrent 2.2.1 can handle, using 32mb and 64mb piece sizes, with these torrents being well over 1tb up to 1.8tb in size, and uTorrent just cannot handle them so without using another client you could never get the 1.4tb gog pack. The maximum number of pieces uTorrent 2.2.1 can handle is 65536, the maximum piece size is 16mb so the biggest data within a torrent uTorrent 2.2.1 can handle is just under 1tb in size. Tl dr if block size is 32mb or greater uTorrent 2.2.1 simply cant handle these. The only two things that don't work are bigger torrent blocks and v2 torrents. Utorrent 2.2.1 can do most things and has it's advantages, no doubt.
