Why is KTorrent so much slower?

Good afternoon,
I was using KTorrent for quite a while and the downloads were partly very quick, but partly very lousy, concerning the rates. I once tried to open up the same torrent under µtorrent 1.6.0 (later 1.6.1), using WINE. The rates were partly 5 or 6 times as high (they grew from 4.5 kb or so to 50-70kb), with the same upload limitation.
So - how come? I notice a lot of seeders refusing sharing their files to people who use KTorrent as I was blocked very often. Can I avoid that in any way, as I would rather like to use KTorrent over µtorrent - KDE native over WINE emulated.
Thanks in advance
regards,
cg

How did you noticed that you were blocked?
(I refer now to the german translation of ktorrent)
"Abgewiesen" = "Ja" doesnt mean that you are blocked, it just means that the other peer is too busy right now and your client shall try it later...
KTorrent is very fast here... Do you use upnp or do you have set the ports manually? I have forwarded the bittorrent ports from my router to my computers ip and entered them in ktorrent, and since then ktorrent flies...

  • Preview takes forever to open, much slower than on my old MacBook. It has been like this since I bought the computer last January. Why is Lion so much slower?

    Preview takes forever to open, much slower than on my old MacBook running Snow Leopard. It has been like this since I bought the computer last January. Any ideas?

    Take it to an Apple Store for testing. If you don't get immediate satisfaction, exchange it for another one, which you can do at no cost, no questions asked, within 14 days of delivery.

    I have a HP laptop & Dell desktop with IE7 and Firefox. I use Firefox more as I like it better than IE, yet the pages in Firefox load so slow. I thought the new version of Firefox was so much faster, but it seems to drag along and take forever to load pages. Why is this??

  • Why is PE12 so much slower than PE11?

    I have been using PE11 on a quick machine with 8GB of RAM without any issues.  Thought I'd 'Upgrade' to PE12 and everything is (literally) 10 times slower.  I have to render everything before I can ply it in the timeline (never had to render in 11) and the rendering can be as slow as one frame a second.  Obviously this is unworkable when I import 20mins of video and it's 40,000 frames to render.  If I import the same info into PE11 it doesn't even need rendering.  I can drag along the blue arrow and see it all move as fast as I like with the stuttered audio going along with it.  In PE12 I need to move the arrow to a given point - stop it - and wait about 5 seconds to see the frame that is there and then it might play after about 5 seconds. 
    It's driving me mad and I just can't fathom it.  Same machine - same file - same request of the software, but drastically different results.
    I want to get my money back on PE12 as it was a waste of time - but don't know if that is possible.
    Anyone else experiencing performance issues with 12?
    Looking on the Internet in general it seems many many people have this issue (one chap had 32Gb RAM and experienced the same problems).  Must be down to the software.
    Cheers

    Hi ATR - and thanks for the comprehensive comments.  I am also running Windows 8.1 64 bit.
    Appreciate the advice on getting a refund for the software - I may well use that if I can't find out why things are so slow.
    I will try to answer your questions below...
    I bought this laptop new a couple of weeks ago, so not much opportunity for things to get too clogged up yet - having said that, one of the programs that always goes on any of my PC's is Ccleaner so that was installed right away (and has been regularly run).
    I actually tried the Adobe support chat 3 times last night - but each time I was onward connected to tech support and after pleasantries, they dissapeared each time. So I gave up on that.
    Yes - I have 11 and 12 on this same machine.  In fact I've been experimenting this afternoon with using each program in isolation and also together - loading snips of video and rendering / saving / exporting to DVD.  I am burning a DVD now with 11 which is the only one I have the patience for at the moment.  I'll try burning the same clip from 12 when this is done.
    Then there are the typical questions...
    a. What project preset?
    b. What are the properties of what is going on that Timeline?
    c. Even with your present computer environment, how much multitasking is going on?
    d. Latest version of QuickTime installed?
    e. Run As Admininstrator and User Account with Administrative Privileges?
    f. Video card/graphics card driver version up to date according to the web site of the manufacturer of the video card/graphics card?
    a. Not sure about the project preset (am new to Elements) but I guess they are default - I did notice when I went to 'adjust' and 'Smartfix' there was a green icon in it - so I clicked reset to get rid of that - thought that might have had a bearing on the slow speeds.
    b. not sure of details here either - I have basically used a USB to phono convertor to transfer a load of Video8 footage off my camera with the default settting (MPEG).  I've been capturing for about 30mins at a time and then putting 2 or 3 of the 30min sections into the timeline (but have also now played with far smaller (2 to 5 minute) sections of captured video to compare and contrast on speeds for various processes with more manageable chunks of video. Thus far I am leaving the video as is - I.e.apart from introducing a transition affect between sections, I have no narration or effects or soundtrack - just the raw MPEG video (and sound) on video1 and audio1
    c. Multitasking apps / programs - I do have a few things running, but nothing serious - I will get rid of all else that's running when carrying out some more tests - good point, thanks.
    d. Erm - not sure about QT - will have a look and update this evening if necessary
    e. Yes - running as admin - although I possibly wasn't before... Do I have to right-click the icon to invoke this every time?  I tested after running as admin and it made no difference
    f. Like QT - I will check the video card software - being a new machine I did have it do quite a few updates when I got it home (including 8 to 8.1 upgrade).
    I have now captured about 30 hours of Video8 from the late 80's onto the laptop and need to move on to my next video camera, the VHS-C beast which has early footage of the kids etc.  It feels good to know I'm finally getting this stuff digitised, but I won't be able to cope with editing and burning it on DVD at the speed PrE12 is going...
    Thanks again for the time in coming back to me.  I shall address the QT and video card drivers issues tonight and see how I go.
    Fundamentally, I just cannot see why I have such a pronounced difference in performance between the two versions - seems very odd.
    Cheers,
    Tom.

  • Why is Thunderbolt so much slower than USB3?

    I'm considering two different drives for Time Machine purposes. Both are LaCie. Either of these:
    - Two Porsche 9233 drives, 4 TB each
    OR
    - A 2Big Thunderbolt drive, 8 TB, which I would configure as RAID 1 (a mirrored 4 TB volume)
    My question is this: I've viewed both of these product pages via the Apple Store, and I noticed that LaCie's information for the Thunderbolt drive makes it a lot slower than the USB drives. Meaning: They say that the 2Big Thunderbolt drive maxes out at like 427 MB/s, whereas the Porsche USB drives max out at 5 GB/s. Why is this? Isn't Thunderbolt supposed to be a lot faster than USB (any iteration)?

    Not an easy question, short of a whole lot more detail on the construction of those two devices.   You're likely going to need to look at the details of the drives and probably at some actual data.   You're really looking for some real benchmark data that you can compare, in other words.    Particularly which (likely Seagate) drives are used in those (IIRC, Seagate bought LaCie a while back), and what the specs are.
    The hard disk drives themselves are a central factor, where the drive transfer rate is a key metric for big transfers (and that can be based on drive RPM as much as anything, faster drives can stream more data, but they tend to need more power and run hotter), and access (seek) time for lots of smaller transfers (faster seeks mean faster access, so good for lots of small files scattered around).  Finding the details of the drives can be interesting, though.  I've seen lots of cheaper disks that spin very slowly, which means that they can have nice-looking transfer times out of any cache, but then... you... wait... for... the... disk... to... spin.
    The device bus interfaces can also vary (wildly) in quality.   I've seen some decent ones, and I've seen some USB adapters that were absolute garbage.   Some devices have decent quantities of cache, too.  Others have dinky caches, and end up doing synchronous transfers to hard disks, and that's glacial compared with memory speeds.
    One of your example configurations also features RAID 1 mirroring, which means that each write is hitting both disks.   The writes have to pass through a controller that can do RAID 0 mirroring, and that can write the I/O requests to both drives, and that can read the data back from (if it's clever) whichever of the two drives is best positioned in related to the sectors you're after.   If it's dumb, it won't account for the head positions and drive rotation and sector target.   Hopefully the controller is smart enough to correctly deal with a disk failure; I've met a few RAID controllers that weren't as effective when disks had failed and the array was running in a degrated mode.  In short, RAID 1 mirroring is a reliability-targeted configuration and not a performance configuration.  It'll be slower.  Lose a disk in RAID 1 mirroring, and you have a second disk with a second copy.    If the controller works right.
    If you want I/O performance without reliability, then configure for RAID 0 striping.   With that configuration, you're reading data from both disks.  But lose a disk in a RAID 0 striping configuration and you're dealing with data recovery, at best.  If the failure is catastrophic, you've lost half your data.
    But nobody's going to make this choice for you, and I'd be skeptical of any specs outside of actual benchmarks, and preferably benchmarks approximating your use.  Reliability is another factor, and that's largely down to reputation in the market; how well the vendor supports the devices, should something go wrong.  One of the few ways to sort-of compare that beyond the reviews is the relative length of the warranty, and what the warranty covers; vendors generally try to design and build their devices to last at least the length of the warranty.
    Yeah.  Lots of factors to consider.  No good answers, either.  Given it's a backup disk, I'd personally tend to favor  eliability and warranty and less about brute speed.
    Full disclosure: no experience with either of these two devices.  I am working with Promise Pegasus Thunderbolt disk arrays configured RAID 6 on various Mac Mini configurations, and those support four parallel HD DTV video streams with no effort.  The Pegasus boxes are plenty fast.  They're also much more expensive than what you're looking at.

  • Why is my iMac much slower after installing Mavericks. Windows open slowly and Apps load slowly.

    Everything seems to be taking much longer. I have a late-2012 iMac with 32 GB of RAM that was blazing fast until I "upgraded" to Mavericks. Now everyithing is slow. Does it use more system resources? I would think that with that much RAM I would have plenty of headroom for the OS. Is anyone else experiencing this?

    Here's my suggestion:
    Fixing a Mavericks Installation Problem
    How to manage a failed OS X Mavericks installation | MacFixIt - CNET Reviews.
    1. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC).
    2. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks
    Re-download and reinstall Mavericks.
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Why is searching so much slower in both Lion and Mountain Lion than Snow Leopard?

    Hi, I use Snow Leopard run on several Mac Pros to perform multidimensional time-lapse-imaging in our lab. Snow Leopard provides instantaneous (seconds) searching for folders containing the image sequences I require for analysis (distributed across 4 x 2TB hard drives- images are saved under the structure Time\Position, and for analysis I need to retrieve all folders with the same Position label). Lion and Mountain Lion either fail to search or are painfully slow. For analysis I use internal hard drives connected as external volumes via USB and I suspect this might be part of the problem, however the same setup works flawlessly with Snow Leopard.
    This problem is becoming very frustrating as I can’t figure out what has changed, or whether I am overlooking something obvious. I installed Lion on my MacBook Pro over 6 months ago which is when I discovered this problem and had to reinstall Snow Leopard. At that time I had hoped that the next OS might provide a better search function for our use, but after some testing it seems the same. To search through folders manually takes over 10 x as long as using a simple search in Snow Leopard. Can anyone provide me any advice as to what might be causing this problem and whether there might be a solution? I’ve tried a few free searching tools from the app store, but these do not perform any better than searching in Finder. I would obviously prefer to be able to invest in new Macs in the future which run the most current OS without having to install Snow Leopard on them all (if this is even possible without future models without causing compatibility problems).
    Many thanks for reading and for any advice you can give me.

  • Why is animation so much slower in 2.2 than 2.1?

    I have a pretty gnarly translate/scale animation running on my Mac in jdk 7u7 or jdk 7u10. Javafx 2.2.x doesn't seem to be able to handle it. The animation is choppy and slow. I had the exact same animation in 2.1/jdk 6 on the same computer and it was smooth and fast.
    Any reason for this? Is there any way I can tell if GPU is being used?
    Thanks!

    I wonder how this performs when you use the setup Java 7 update 5 + JavaFX 2.1 (so only upgrade the JDK, not JavaFX). If only to rule out that the problem actually originates from the JDK update and not JavaFX specifically.

  • Why is Intel so much slower than AMD??

    We have run into a problem with a few of our clients running Intel Pentium 4 (no hyperthreading) processors. Our web application under tomcat runs 20 - 30% slower on Intel (benchmarks scores are available). Our shop uses AMD Athlon processors and we have no performance problems at all.
    We have had client come to our shop to verify that the application is indeed faster here and they always say that it is significantly faster.
    We have developed benchmarks for certain parts of our system (formula calculation, and page rendering) and run themmon and AMD 2500+ and and Intel P4 2.4 Ghz . According to all industry standard (SiSoft Sandra, etc) benchmarks we have come across, these machine should perform roughly the same, with the AMD performing slightly (5-10%) above the Intel.
    Has anyone come across this problem before?? Are there certain operations or combinations of operations in Java that are significantly slower on the Intel??
    We are seeing this on both the Client and Server VMs. All machines are running JDK 1.4.2_04 on Windows XP SP 1.

  • Why is CS6 so much slower than CS5 was

    Setup: Sager laptop NP8760 - CPU: QuadCore Intel Core i7 820QM, 2648 MHz (20 x 132)
                                                         8GB ram running win 7 64 bit
    I've found that trying to use the CS6 (cloud) version of Adobe bridge is not really possible unless you don't mind having 4-8 second pauses for nearly any use.  Right clicking for any reason is guaranteed to cause a good 5 second wait to see the right click menu. The first click on any menu bar item also gauranteed to cause a 5-8 second wait.  Repeatedly (happens whenever focus leaves bridge, no matter how momentary)
    Of course if you are intent on working with your images you can't really put up with that much delay.
    I end up using CS5 bridge with CS6 photoshop or any of the other CS6 tools, but some things are then impossible to do from bridge, to me the worst one is not being able to send selections of images thru the photoshop image processor.  I have to start CS6 bridge and put up with its incredible contrariness to do that job.
    Something that was done to bridge between CS5 and CS6 seems to be the likely place to look for the solution to this problem, but while I can read the lsted changes I don't know enough to be able to tell which might be responsible or what I can do about it.
    My hardware is nothing breath taking but should be well adequate to run Bridge... especially when I've carefully turned off any other application that I am using.
    I've noticed lots of talk here of redoing cache and moving cache etc.  My cache is on a different disk than the program and I've purged it a time or two to make sure that wasn't the problem. 
    I've made no customizations to bridge so it should be installed all vanilla.

    I have the same issue.  Customer chat has not been able to resolve.
    :  CS6 Unresponsive.
    2 second lag after clicking on any menu item. 
    4-8 second lag after right clicking on any image. 
    3 second lag while selecting images with arrow keys.
    2 second lag selecting multiple images
    My system is high performance:
    . 12 Core 3.3Ghz Xeon Processors
    . 24GB RAM
    . Primary drive is 8 SSDs in a RAID0 configuration
    . Dual nVidia Quadro FX5400
    . OS: Win7 x64
    CS5 and CS5.5 were very “snappy” in responsiveness on this system.  CS6 Bridge works fine on my laptop, perfectly responsive.
    Once Camera RAW or Photoshop are open, no issue working in these tools, so, the issue is bridge.
    Here’s my debugging steps which have not worked to fix the issue:
    Installed the latest camera RAW plug in from Nikon.  Nikon D800 RAW .NEF files work in windows explorer and in CS5.5.
    Installed all windows updates
    Installed the lastest nvidia FX5800 card drivers
    Uninstalled all Adobe products (reader, media player, etc.)
    Uninstalled all plugs ins (HDR, noise, etc.)
    Checked there are no fonts on the system (no TTF files)
    Uninstalled Office 2013 to make sure there were no system font issues.
    Uninstalled all Nikon software except the RAW plug in.
    Deleted C:\Program Files\Adobe and C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe
    Searched for any Adobe reference in c:\Users\<my_username>\ (example AppData), and deleted it.
    Cleaned the registry of any reference to Adobe or any dll related to Adobe or an Adobe plug in.
    Rebooted multiple times.
    Re-installed CS6 Master Collection.  At this point it did not recognize my raw photos (.NEF from a Nikon D800).
    Installed all Adobe Updates.
    The updates fixed the camera raw issue
    Ran FontTest.jsx – all fonts passed, none failed.
    Tried Preferences:
    Advanced -> Use Software Rendering : CPU utilization went up, but, no impact on the lag
    Startup Scripts : Disabled all but Photoshop CS6
    Increased Cache Size, Compacted Cache, Purged Cache, Different Cache organizations, etc.

  • Why does iTunes work much slower using Mavericks?

    I have a MacBook Pro with 8 GBs of Ram, processor 2.9 MHz, running 10.9 and itunes works slowly.  When switching between albums, I get a beach ball that pops up sometimes for 5-10 seconds.  Or I select another album, and I get no response for several seconds as well.  What gives?  My activity monitor shows only 4 GBs of memory being used.  I took my MacBook to the Apple Store, and a genius rep told me the problem is with my upgrade to 10.9, and there was nothing he could do.  Are other people expereincing this problem?

    I have exactly the same issue when using Albums View, it sometimes even hangs for a minute or longer, and then will work when browsing within Albums View fine until I switch views and the beachball returns when switching back to Albums. It is even worse when editing any info/id3 tag either directly or thru Get Info within Albums View -- editing works fine in Songs or Artists View.
    I used 11.1.2 with Mountain Lion and did not have any hangs in Album View. This strongly indicates that Mavericks brings out this issue but the true cause can still be user/system specific.
    I do suspect it has to do with displaying/refreshing album artwork, as it is partially missing the first time I click Album View, and it seems it is refreshing the artwork everytime you use Album View. I embed all artwork into my audio files, so I wonder how everyone else with this beachball issue manages their artwork.
    I sent several reports via iTunes feedback, hopefully this nuisance will be fixed with the next update.

  • Much slower request with more nodes for ReplicatedCache

    Hi,
    We have been using Tangosol for 3 years without any problem, our topology is quite simple, we are using a replicated cache :
    <cache-mapping>
    <cache-name>repl-*</cache-name>
    <scheme-name>default-replicated</scheme-name>
    </cache-mapping>
    <replicated-scheme>
    <scheme-name>default-replicated</scheme-name>
    <service-name>ReplicatedCache</service-name>
    <backing-map-scheme>
    <class-scheme>
    <scheme-ref>default-backing-map</scheme-ref>
    </class-scheme>
    </backing-map-scheme>
    <autostart>true</autostart>
    </replicated-scheme>
    <class-scheme>
    <scheme-name>default-backing-map</scheme-name>
    <class-name>com.tangosol.util.SafeHashMap</class-name>
    <init-params></init-params>
    </class-scheme>
    Recently we added more servers so more members (from 5 to 10) and we are facing some Tangosol requests that are now much much slower (2s -> 3mn)
    The thread dump points out the following stack trace :
    # com.tangosol.util.ThreadLocalObject:findThreadStorage(ThreadLocalObject.java:320)
    # com.tangosol.util.ThreadGate$ThreadLocalCounter:decrement(ThreadGate.java:750)
    # com.tangosol.util.ThreadGate:exit(ThreadGate.java:398)
    # locked-->com.tangosol.util.ThreadGate(0x1d5c7bd0)
    # com.tangosol.net.cache.OverflowMap:endKeyProcess(OverflowMap.java:1906)
    # com.tangosol.net.cache.OverflowMap:getInternal(OverflowMap.java:873)
    # com.tangosol.net.cache.OverflowMap:get(OverflowMap.java:330)
    # com.tangosol.coherence.component.util.CacheHandler:getLease(CacheHandler.CDB:3)
    # com.tangosol.coherence.component.util.CacheHandler:getCachedResource(CacheHandler.CDB:10)

    # com.tangosol.coherence.component.util.CacheHandler$EntrySet$Entry:getValue(CacheHandler.CDB:2)
    I don't understand why OverflowMap is in this stack trace ?
    do you have any ideas why the requests are much slower when we add members ?
    Thx,
    Fabrice

    Hi Fabrice,
    OverflowMap is used in the internal implementation of replicated cache to store recently deleted objects.
    Please send the full thread dump from one of your cache servers to support at tangosol.com.

  • Why does this forum perform much slower than form forum in metalink?

    I feel strongly that this forum performs much slower than the form forum in metalink where there are even more active and more issues created there.
    I don't know why Oracle creates two form forum, which one is faster and another one is slower.
    What is the difference b/w them besides here is jsp pages and over there is plsql pages?

    Oracle certainly allows you to have users that do not have roles. Or users that don't have any system privileges. Or users that don't have any object privileges.
    If you want the query to return a row for every row in DBA_USERS, you would need to outer join all the other tables to DBA_USERS.
