Transmission has been pretty unusable on my old duo since I upgraded my drives and did a clean 4.1.7 radiator install. At first it was just horrible DL speeds and the really low number of connected peers, to the point I stopped using it for a while... (with all versions of transmission 2.1 and above, including the one that worked before the upgrade)
It got better a few weeks ago but speeds weren't great, still I decided to give it a shot again, and then it just started crashing on me repeatedly, no matter what version I use (duo runs out of memory, kills transmission).

I'm currently on the latest v2.42 and it's been 2 days since I changed the cache size from 200 MB to 8. Not only has it not crashed on me, I'm actually downloading at 1.3-1.8 MB/s, whereas it wouldn't go above 500 KB/s since the system reset.
