Just thought I'd share this because amongst all the other advice I found for increasing Deluge's speed, this was not addressed. I changed "Maximum Upload Speed" in the global section to -1, the per-torrent upload speed to 10KiB/s, and almost immediately saw my DL speed increase. Because that was very similar to my upload limit, I thought that "Global Bandwidth Usage" might also regulate BitTorrent protocol traffic (I guess logically so, but AFAIK uTorrent has similar option which limits bandwidth for torrent payload traffic across all torrents, and so I thought that this was similar). With uTorrent I'd regularly get aggregate download speeds of 5 MB/s and up, but with Deluge I was only pulling in about 300KiB/s.Īfter banging my head against the wall for a bit, I saw that "Protocol Traffic Download / Upload" was sitting at just under 20KiB/s. I tweaked my upload settings similarly to those of uTorrent, with a global upload speed of 20KiB/s (I know, I'm a terrible person for this, but I use my connection for serving web/email/DNS, and so have very limited spare upstream capacity). I decided to trade that in for a CentOS instance in VirtualBox, and installed Deluge. I had previously been using uTorrent on a WinXP machine that was exclusively for downloading. I'm hoping that this isn't a duplicate post, but some Googling didn't find this information - I'm hoping that by posting here, now it will.
