qBittorrent official forums

Hi All, Update: After several months of testing I have decided to part company with both qBittorrent and KTorrent, and I have been running KTorrent much longer than qBittorrent, but unfortunately both have fallen prey to this ridiculous frenetic rate of "progress" &  'improvements' to ...

and I've noticed that if I restart Windows while qBittorrent is running, it apparently doesn't properly shut down (even though I don't do the "force close"),

If you shut down the OS without closing the client first it is still a 'force close' as far as qbittorrent/libtorrent is concerned.

So why are you asking WHY a piece of software that simply uses whatever network connection that you m...

when I'm watching movie or creating torrent? Neither of those are remotely connected to the qbittorrent cache which is a separate entity to the system caching, yes it uses the same hardware (RAM) but the two do not interact especially once the OS cache  is bypassed. but the speed always drops with ...

that LPD is its intended purpose. You are quite correct in that conclusion, Local Peer Discovery (LPD)/Local Service Discovery(LSD)  is intended to connect to peers that are 'local' to your external IP, and 'Local' in this instance means "Local within your Internet Service Provider's (ISP)   n...

the buffer size in Statistics is almost the same size like when OS cache is enabled As on would expect, the required "size" does not change, only the mechanism of handling the cached items changes. How exactly works that buffers and OS cache. The memory cache is there for holding the 16 k...
