Cmd line bittorrent quesiton
I setup bittorrent to run from the comamnd line via the python script btdownloadcurses.py.
It's running fine, except unlike in the Win32 client, I have no way to cap the download rate. Normally this isn't a problem, however on some very active torrents I'll instantly cap my circuit with the torrent eating 95% of available bandwidth or more.
I can adjust the upload rate with --max_upload_rate but there is no corresponding --max_download_rate option and even if I set the max_upload_rate as low as 15 or 20 I can still pull down 200k/sec or more on well seeded torrents.
Anything I've missed, or does anyone know a way I can limit the download rate to say 80k/sec per torrent (I often set several to dl via screens)?
