Is there any downside to leaving something seeding indefinitely? Typically I just leave all my torrents seeding whenever I’m done 24/7 (whenever the VPN is on) but is there any detrimental issues to seeding too much?
It doesn’t bother me I was just curious if there was ever a such thing as too much seeding since I have like 20+ things seeding and maybe one thing downloading.
Speed isn’t an issue since I have gigabit internet.
You’re not having issues because it’s very likely it’s limited by your ISP regardless. There’s simply no way a consumer ISP (or VPN) is allowing 1200 simultaneous UDP connections. So you could likely set it to a million and have no issues. Because you’re being limited to ~250-500 at the protocol level by your ISP/VPN. lol
Situations like this, torrent priority is even more important because there’s a high likelihood you’re not able to connect to peers you otherwise would be able to if you were using priorities…
