Hello, Sorry for the late response, I think I wasn't cced the mail from the bugreport. And I have returned to using Azureus, mainly due to the fragmentation issue. I don't have any measurements about the fragmentation, but I had a harddisk that was approaching unusable (at least with the latest files - I got transfer rates roughly 10% of what the disk should be able to deliver). To reproduce, try something like the following: Take a partition, write some files to it, then add ~ a dozen torrents that roughly fill the remaining space. Delete random files (both older and newer ones) and repeat. I admit this is a situation where you can't prevent the fragmentation, because of the lack of remaining space. But when you have ten growing files all competing for the remaining disk space, I don't think caching alone will help that much.
