Hello,

since new year Tixati started throttling speed (did not update it, updating to latest version did not help).
It's not only my problem: https://www.reddit.com/r/torrents/comments/khi3vd/tixati_downloading_at_a_slow_rate/
I switched to qbittorrent and is all good, although I had some arguments with ISP about throttling before realizing tixati was the culprit.
You can boost speed by using your bandwidth with another application for example by using "test your internet" speed websites.

Same exact problem. Thanks for the link.

Hm. Guess it depends on what you term a 'slow' connection in the first place. Here in the UK, speeds are not what you'd call great at the best of times; but I normally limit around 3 MB/s, and have gone as high as 5 MB/s. That's GOOD by UK standards.....especially living out in the sticks, as I do (just on the outskirts of a small town).

I've tried most of the torrent clients, and I always come back to Tixati.....for sheer speed, ease-of-use, and the entire feature-set. The 'portable' version works great for me here on Linux ('Puppy' Linux; yeah, I'm one of those 'head-cases'! <lol>).....'sym-linked' into every one of around 8 Puppies via the appropriate binary, and all sharing a common, 'linked' Downloads directory. Best client by a mile..!
