New Transmission add-on thread
The previous thread was very long time to open a new one and prepare the 2.0 :)
I'm running Transmission 2.0.1 on a Duo.
Currently I'm seeding 103 torrents (total size 285GB) on 5 different trackers, of which at the moment 3 torrents are uploading (filesize each 6-7GB).
CPU usage of Transmission is mostly between 10% and 35% with peaks up to 60%. I'm checking this with top via SSH.
I don't really bother about this cpu usage, since AFP and HTTPS seem to have higher priority and therefore I don't notice anything during streaming or downloading.
Just giving you my usage profile as a comparison and I don't think that quantity should be of concern with just three torrents..
Don't get me wrong, I Iagree that the Duo is underpowered, but Transmission does work like a charm. And why not let it use 40% of the CPU anyway? There's still 60% left. :)
edit: Just read about your CIFS-issues. I hardly ever use CIFS and mostly connect the Duo over a 8011.g wireless network, which yields nothing close to 20MB/s anyway.. Whenever I move something to the Duo though, AFP gets most of the CPU and Transmission is suppressed.
