This has just fixed mine too - great find.
I'm running radiator 4.2.21 on a ReadynasPro4 and this has been annoying me for ages. Finally got round to putting transmission 2.77.01 on, hoping that it would fix the problem but if anything it got worse.
Just checked the cache setting and it was 2048!?! I've set it to 8 and all appears to be well now. I wonder where these ridiculous cache sizes are coming from? I can't imagine the dev is setting them that way, given that (so far as I know) none of the product range come with >2GB of ram.
And the Transmission website had this to say for the latest release so it not come from there ether.
I wonder if a rogue update has made a mess of the config at some point.

cache-size-mb: Size (default = 4), in megabytes, to allocate for Transmission's memory cache. The cache is used to help batch disk IO together, so increasing the cache size can be used to reduce the number of disk reads and writes. Default is 2 if configured with --enable-lightweight.
