Hi, I'm like qBittorent, but when i starting download big BDrip, more than 10Gb, my coputer really freezing, while qBittorent is filling file with zero's data.
Linux is supporting posix_fallocate method, which create a big files very quickly, of course, if FS support this call.
Please send me a link of a place, where is allocationg file for download, and will try modify it, or (developer) please make this feature, it's really need.

Re: Allocation and system freeze
What filesystem are you using?
ext3 would fill the data with zeroes. I just tried 17GB torrent on ext4 and xfs partitions and qbittorrent allocates it in a second. Didn't test ext4 much since I'm using only XFS for my torrents and video recordings and it was always working fine.

Re: Allocation and system freeze
I think it would refer back to libtorrent anyway... so maybe better luck there?
