    it pings google every few seconds and adjusts your upload speed to keep your ping at roughly what you want it to be at.

    high ping = bad. transfering too much data at once causes high ping

    Yeah but what does google have to do with it.

    Remember I'm a recovering rodaholic, so these are genuine questions.

    Oh and your lest we forget was OK, however some people may take it as being in bad taste as it normally relates to our war dead.

    google is like the biggest site on the interweb, so if you can't get a good ping to them it's almost certainly a problem at your end.


    and sorry about the lest thing i thought it was just a posh way of saying don't

    What he said.

    How does something "pinging" Google have any effect on your torrent downloads.

    Is it a seperate prog you run while you are downloading or is it an automatic thing.

    I'm not offended about the other thing mate, but thanks for saying it anyway. I was just suggesting that some people may be. Almost certainly no-one here, but there are hyper-sensitive people :earl:

    It's built in to the program and gives a link to wiki which says this:
    Auto-speed attempts to match Azureus's upload speed with your network connection's current traffic to avoid overloading it.

    It works by selecting a number of other Azureus instances from the Distributed Database as ping targets. It then periodically pings these to obtain an average latency for your connection. In order to baseline these pings Azureus needs a period during which little network activity occurs. If this doesn't happen naturally within a period after startup it will temporarily force the upload limit to a very low value to obtain the baseline (it may repeat this at other times when the ping targets change)

    Once a baseline ping time is available, auto-speed adjusts the upload speed based on the observed difference between the current ping time and the baseline.

    There are many different types of connection with very different characteristics. Unfortunately auto-speed is currently not clever enough to optimise its behaviour for all scenarios automatically so you may need to adjust its parameters to maximise its effectiveness. To do this you need to select a 'mode' of 'advanced' in the configuration.

    The three main parameters of interest are the increase/decrease amounts and the 'choking ping'. The first two affect how quickly auto-speed changes Azureus's upload setting in response to ping latency changes. The third is the latency that Azureus will consider as an absolute indicator of choking (although it also considers an additional factor based on the measured baseline ping time)
