Hey I would like to request upload speed limit per torrent and not a global upload limit. So I can easily seed torrent that have very low numbers of seeders. Thanks in advance

Okey thanks but it would be nice if it were a global setting

And what would the existing global limit setting do then?

Let's say I have 2 torrents, one a TV show and one is some old game. Now the game doesn't have a lot of seeders or people downloading it. But the TV show have a lot of people downloading so if I set a limit to 3 mb per sec the TV show would take all the bandwidth and the game doesn't get seeded. Think the same with a lot of different torrents
Hope that explains somewhat good

@niklas2233
I think I understand the problem you describe, but not the desired behavior.

The problem sounds like you have seeding priorities for your torrents. Some are more important than others.

Wouldn't a better solution be torrent upload priorities, a la #566?

OK. :)
Just thought I'd check.

I'm not sure exactly what behavior you want with this request, but I'm not a coder anyway, so no biggie!
