In the libtorrent of rTorrent unfortunately still exists after many years a very serious bug

Code:

https://github.com/rakshasa/libtorrent/issues/167

which ensures that the Announce interval is consistently ignored by our tracker. Since rTorrent is the most used client on our tracker, this error leads to an unnecessary load on our server.

There is a workaround to fix this error. But you need access to the rTorrent configuration (~ / .rtorrent.rc).

For this the following value must be set to 0 (if it does not exist, just add the whole line):

Code:

Code:

throttle.min_peers.seed.set = 0

Afterwards rTorrent has to be restarted for the change to be active.

These changes have no negative impact and just make sure that our announce interval is no longer ignored.

We therefore ask everyone to access the rtorrent.rc has made this change. In the end, everyone has something of it, if our server has to work less.
