I know ideally you seed as much as you can, but I’m curious how much extra resources (memory, cpu, etc) each additional torrent you seed uses? I don’t mind the storage being used, but the box I have all my torrents on isn’t the most powerful and I’m nearing 100 torrents seeding and am a little concerned it may bottleneck the other stuff running at one point. Most aren’t actively seeding all the time, they just occasionally contribute here and there.

Under 2gigs for 7.5k, what’s some of your settings for connection limits and max active?

I have qBit too with about 30TB and currently 2.5k torrents. I average maybe 5MB/s.

I’ve honestly had the best performance just leaving connections and max active at unlimited. I’ve read a lot of suggestions about limiting it for increased upload speed, but I have never seen the benefit when I’ve tried it.
