Just crossed 1PB total upload, felt like bragging a bit. I’m sure others who have been at this for years and years would put my numbers to shame, but I was excited to see that 4th digit tick over! :)
Congrats, that’s a lot of Linux distros you have uploaded.
Don’t forget Big Buck Bunny!
Man that ratio, truly doing the lords good work
20:1 is crazy! Maybe I’m just interested in niche stuff, but I struggle to keep mine in the 1:1-2:1 range :(
If you want to increase your ratio you can just seed something popular
You are doing god’s works. Torrents with few seeders are important to keep alive!
The highest on my server is over 400:1 and it’s a random romcom my wife wanted. Go figure, lol
That’s a lot of Linux distros and libre office downloads!
I get the joke, but it’s weird for me that my highest ratio is for a Debian 13.3 ISO - 767MB down, 13.85GB up
My highest ratio on a transfer is on one I had for almost a year and a half and it’s 48.44 GiB down to 1.676 TiB up, which amounts to around 490 for ratio. Everybody loves this collection of Linux ISOs, it looks like.
Doing the lords work
Don’t you need another dozen or so TB? I thought it was 1024, not 1000, to the next unit
Correct 1 PiB = 1024 TiB. That’s why the lower case i is shown to denote they’re using base 2 instead of base 10.
But the good news is that 1011 TiB = 1.1 PB so OP actually crossed that milestone a while ago.
I hate this shit. Nobody gave a shit about GiB until companies just had to enshitify hard drives. When I was a kid 1GB was 1024 MB end of discussion, nobody was counting anything in base 10.
Yeah you’re technically correct, which I’m told is the best kind!
Ahoy! Thank you for your service!

Wow! I hit 100TB a couple months ago after about 8ish months of running it. 1 PB is truly incredible
Very nice. public or private trackers? I can never get any upload on private
All just public trackers. I haven’t been able to get into any private invites, but aside from some niche stuff, the public ones have been serving me well enough.
Mine actually says PiB, which is fun.
Best ratio torrent is Dune 2021 with a ratio of 4523:1 😅
To be fair, this is on a machine that runs 24/7 and has been active for 3 years now.Who is your ISP? How are they ok with this?
how are they ok with what, people using service they paid for? they are quite okey, that is how their business works, they provide service and people give them money.
imagine they go so far that they put up ads to find more such people!
Honestly at least in US the ISPs couldn’t care less until a studio or something comes after them. But I have qbittorrent bound to a VPN, which is enough.
My ISP throttles my shit crazy when I start any torrent… My ratio is like .02 because I can’t upload anything almost ever even at 50~ mbps. I’ve tried the “use a random port every restart” and it is still ass. Suggestions welcome
Are you using a VPN that allows port forwarding? It took me a couple months of slow uploads to realize that was my problem.
He’d be insane to complain about this if the didn’t have port forwarding setup
Even so, I’m not gonna judge. It took me awhile to realize my mistake there as well. 🍻
You are a saint. Thanks for giving back to the community.
