Title: How long do you seed shows on etree?
Post by: ycoop on July 22, 2018, 03:58:39 PM

I've got my first two recordings up on etree, and since they are Phish shows they already have around 40 other seeders. I have a limited amount of space on my internal SSD, so I'm seeding from an external HDD. I'd like to keep the wear on the HDD as low as possible while also being a responsible seeder. I figured seeding for a week or two would be adequate.

Thoughts?

I'd be long gone by now. Once there are about 10 seeders, I usually drop off. But, no hard and fast rule for me.

My answer to the OP is: after my share goes over 200% I drop off. i.e. if the fileset is 1.1GB and I have uploaded 2.2 GB's I then can drop out thinking I've contributed.
(but I only download from-not upload to bt.etree)

I have really slow upload speed (1mb up), so once there's a handful of seeders I drop off. And do the same for Dime.
