When i run top command at telnet i see really high CPU load, about 70~90%



I don't know how many CPU load should be ok or if previous versions have lower CPU load. ¿Is it normal?

EDIT: Now i see the client is checking the downloads, maybe the high CPU load is normal in this case. I will run top again when the client finish the check.

Transmission finished cheching the files, and de CPU load still is high:


Now i will install 1.42 and see what happens with the CPU load.

¿Can someone else check the CPU load of his/her transmission client?

This kind of CPU load can happen when transmission is Verifying your local data or when you have massive amounts of torrents added to transmission. I normally download a few torrents at a time and do not get this kind of load!

I think you are right. I have 14 transfers, 7 downloads and 7 uploads. All of them high definition files downloaded from private trackers.

I usually have this amount of transfers and i never found a problem even with transmission 1.41 and btpd.

I just never seen before the CPU load of my popcorn hour and when i saw i was surprised, but now i think high CPU loads are normal with high number of transfers.

I will try to reduce the amount of downloads and run top again.

Transmission (all vers ive tried) keeps forgetting my settings when i restart the a100. Is there a config file that i can edit someplace to save the settings on reboot of the popcorn?

[csabakon]

I would need your help! I am not able to use Transmission 1.42 on my Popcorn directly. I opened a new web service on the Popcorn.

Name: Transmission 1.42
Webaddress: http://localhost.drives:8883/HARD_DISK/t.../index.cgi

If I start it, I receive a message, that it can not be started.

If I use Transmission Web Interface, its working fine, I see the torrents and so on but still not on the popcorn.

I have the new firmware installed, I also tried to reinstall, but still not working.

Pls help! Thank you!

Please verify that you have an "transmission-nmt" and ".transmission-nmt" folder on you NMT harddisk! If you do, please check if there is a index.cgi inside it.

Might be a file-rights problem. I guess that the .transmission/settings.json is readonly for the transmission daemon, so the daemon is not able to save it's settings when it is stopped. Try installing telnetd and execute

Code:

chmod +w /share/.transmission/settings.json

Make some changes in config, stop transmission in settings of NMT and start it agian. Hopefully the changes will be saved.

I checked, I have both "transmission-nmt" and ".transmission-nmt" and I have index.cgi in both directories.

Will recheck everything and come back...

Yep that did the job Ger thanks very much! It would only keep the settings when i stopped the torrent service, did the command above , start service and then reboot the nmt.

I recently managed to install the new version of Transmission 1.42 in my PCH A-100.
I experience very long response times though.
Both when using the Transmission Web Interface and when accessing the GAYA web service on the PCH. It takes ages for it to load. Often resulting in a server timeout through the Web Interface

Is this normal?

The old torrent client on :8883/torrent/bt.cgi loads instantly, both through PCH and Web interface.

Sounds like high cpu loads to me! The box is just too busy to update or load the transmission 'webpage'. Try stopping some torrents, that may give the nmt some releave.

Very weird, seems like your NMT will not start the index.cgi file.
Please install telnet daemon and make a connection to your NMT.
Then execute the following line

Code:

/share/transmission-nmt/index.cgi

What result do you get?

I reinstalled the nmt, formated the hard drive and now its working!
I could not tell you what the problem was, fact that its working! Thank you for your help!

I also started to download and I have to say that this version seems to be slow. I saw on the forum that a lot of other users have the same problem. Download rate is jumping moment for moment up and down back to 0. What could be the problem?
