Agreed.

However, like i pointed out earlier, from the service I'm using now, I get full speed downloading from the FTP server with 1 FTP account, at 8 connections. The reason I'm thinking of switching is that their upload speed turtle speed. Not that I want to get those RM50 seedboxes with high upload speeds anyways.

Tell me when you are offering server side unrar.

Thanks.

I believe you can just use IDM to download all the rar files in queued sequence.
Dont think you would need unrar fuction then. biggrin.gif

My reason for asking server side unrar is that I share my connection. I can't afford to get my own line, and that my housemate uses xunlei. Due to the fact that his files are chinese sources, mine is otherwise, and the nature of xunlei, he gets more speed of the line. Now here's the problem, downloading a bunch of rar files is a pain in the behind for me, due to Xunlei flooding the line, I have trouble making connections to the FTP server. With the huge amount of small .rar files, I spend most of the time waiting for the files to make connection. With an unrared file, Because I only start the download once, my speed is better.

Sorry.
Just would like to clarify... to understand your concern saying that downloading:
- download one unrar file = faster?
- download multiple rar fiels = slower?
As far as I know (based on my past experience), downloading rar files is easier for bad connection.
Log in -> select all unrar links -> copy all ftp files list from ftp -> paste all links to text documents -> import list via text doc to IDM -> queue the rar files in IDM -> then IDM will finish the download by itself. No need to minotor at all and copy and import all links at one time (no need to copy/ or add links one by one).
While downloading one huge file (say 15Gb), I would get timeout connection error sometimes even in IDM.
There was one time I was forced to re-download the file again. And it was a pain.
For bad connection, downloading rar files is better.
I download Bluray sometimes which >20Gb. I have no problem so far and can finish download in within one day.

no matter how you cut it downloading the rar files is faster unless you're doing it wrong.


People get used to things and once they are used to them they resist changing no matter how much better the alternative.

This is why there are so many people STILL using Microsoft Windows instead of FreeBSD or Linux. People are creatures of habit and they do what is familar to them.


They would rather download a single rar file because they thing it's faster/better but if you look at it logically it fails every single time.

PERFECT example

I got a movie today that was 8 GB, but when it was in 85 rar files, it was only 6GB

so if you are downloading at 200 kb/s that's going to take you 11 hours after you unrar it, that's not counting the TIME it takes to unrar a 8gb file, which is about 10 minutes or so, which will cause about 1-2 server load for a SINGLE unrar of that size

now, downloading the SAME file in rar pieces is going to be 8ish hours and that's not counting any speed bump you get from downloading multiple parts at onces, which is a very real increase, normally on the level of 10-25% speed



Do the math.

Rar files = better for EVERYONE on the server because it keeps load down it makes you download the file FASTER

another very REAL issue is data corruption
it DOES happen, however rare.

if you have an entire torrent in 1 single file and you get some corrupted data, you're SOL

with multi rar files you can use sfv to check and find out which pieces are bad, delete them and download only those parts

i've had it happen a few times where rar saved me from corrupt data. This is why the GOOD private trackers only allow rar format with an nfo file and an SFV file.


and on that note, i've said everything that's important on this subject, due to the load it causes and the utter waste of time/resources i will NEVER turn on server side unrar. I can't help but feel that it's a selfish wasted option once people have the facts. If it's something you can't live without i suggest you get your own server or go to one of the competitors who have MUCH slower speed and higher load (we're rocking 0.2-0.5 load at all times right now)

Unrar and http downloads is why you see flux servers with 700 connections and 5-10 load ALL the time. That's why we use FTP and don't support rar, it's about providing the BEST service possible.

Extra features aren't always in everyone's best interest.

another thing i wanted to say, about your issue.

You should look into a good traffic shaping router.

If you have an old pentium 3 or pentium 4 class pc collecting dust somewhere you should look into pfsense.

It will allow you to really get a FAIR share of your line.

I use it to traffic shape my network and i guarantee it's much bigger and heavier loaded than yours, even WITH my high speed connection.

Most people use cheap routers with 200 mhz processors and 32 mb of ram or LESS (like the linksys wrt-54gs, a super popular router)

They are fine for a small network running mostly web aps but when you get into filesharing you need a stateful firewall/router that has more muscle


you'd be AMAZED what you can do with a throw away pc that you can get for next to nothing, even if you never subscribe to our service you should look into it.

even doing simple ACK priority traffic shaping can help, but pfsense allows much much more, even multiwan configurations (2 isp's that share the load)

do you have dedicated persons monitoring users processes?
does your staff automatically delete torrents that are not moving after certain hours?
or torrents that don't have at least 2 seeders active?

do you have dedicated persons monitoring users processes? - no, its user own monitor base (we dont have time to monitor users stuff if u need this)
does your staff automatically delete torrents that are not moving after certain hours? (we dont, do what ever you like, event the torrent has 0 seed, we dont really care)
or torrents that don't have at least 2 seeders active? (still we dont, as mention just now, we dont care if it seed or not. unless the torrent stuck or freeze you need admin right to reset it)


basically what i'm tying to say is, we don't monitor users download / torrent.
Unless you need help with removing torrent that stuck, we can help to reset or remove with your request.

What is the difference of using YorrentFlux and WebUi, to make my question simple, is it nearly same, login into the torrentflux/webUi url website, upload a torrent, wait for the torrent to download, and download via FTP/HTTP using download manager (EG : IDM) ? or there's some procedure I've to aware?

Thanks

* I never use TorrentFlux before
