2010-01-29 06:38:59 Charles Kerr description Binary package hint: transmission After the update to the 1.80 branch of Transmission I am seeing an issue where every torrent will report having downloaded a larger amount of data than the torrents content account for without a corrupt data count to make up for the difference. As this happens consistently with every torrent I am suspecting a bug is in play. E.g. http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/5228644 gives the following numbers when fully downloaded: Downloaded: 1.8gb Has: 1.5gb No additional download due to corruption in this case. or roughly 130%. Now since share ratio is set for 1,00 this means that you'll upload far more data than you download. Good for the swarm but bad if you are on a limited connection or pay for the data. As a workaround one can set the share ratio at less than 1.00 to match the additional download. In the given example I used the magnet link download but I've seen the same issue using regular .torrent files.
