Thread: rTorrent .rtorrent.rc sample file for Seedbox

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone who is on a seedbox, preferably a 100mbit dedicated seedbox, could post their .rtorrent.rc file for me to use as a guide. I have recently switched from utorrent to rtorrent/rutorrent and I have used MikeD's sample .rtorrent.rc file but I was curious if it was optimized for 100mbit seedboxes. I haven't seen the greatest speeds the past few days since getting it setup but it could be the swarm associated with the torrent. So I just wanted to see how others have their .rtorrent.rc file setup for their dedicated seedboxes.

Thank you much!

EDIT: I have 2GB of RAM and 250GB HDD, with a decent AMD processor on the seedbox.

I get good speeds... if you arent and have a similar setup then I would suggest its the torrent/tracker at fault.
