[Bug 193195] Re: [hardy] trickle upload limit also limits wget download
Let me try to get the ideas strait. There are two optional parameters that I/we are using here to formulate this bug report. * 1st -d rate Limit the download bandwidth consumption to rate KB/s; * 2nd -u rate Limit the upload bandwidth consumption to rate KiB/s; I guess everyone with some network experience knows that if the upload speed is artificially reduce, the download speed WILL be affected, correct? There is a approximated value of 1 for each 80/100 bytes reason. So to achieve 1024KiB/s (8000 kb[its]/s) of bandwidth one needs something close to 10/13KiB/s (80/104 kb/s) of upload bandwidth. Now if we all are talking the same language, I'll get back to this bug. I repeat, in my case I used to need to set a limit on my upload bandwidth when doing downloads, due to our VoIP system. So, when I would use the network I would launch that specific program with trickle (in this example wget). I would then pass the -u (upload throttle) to trickle so that it would only allow a maximum of 8 KiB/s (64kb/s) of our 400kb/s (notice the kilobits, the uplink speed from our ADSL). BUT as the original OP (me) post, that would lock trickle on 10 KiB/s on the download speed, when it should in fact be much higher (around 400/600 KiB/S). Then, with extra comments on this ticket, we found out that trickle code would AUTO set that 10KiB/s limit if not used the -d (download throttle). That doesnt make much sense, and so it is a BUG. I know i could have just used the -d parameter, but that wasnt what I was doing, and the program should allow users to use it as they see fit. In the meantime I've discovered wondershapper that does exactly what I want, but doenst allow me to select the network, as I would do with trickle (by app) or trickled (daemon by protocol, on .conf) ** Changed in: trickle (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => New -- [hardy] trickle upload limit also limits wget download https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193195 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

>From my testing, tricked will automatically go into standalone mode, if some case is met (I'm not sure what that case is). If it is already in standalone mode, then telling it to go into it doesn't matter... and I have duplicated this bug here, limiting upload ALSO appears to limit download.

[Bug 193195] Re: [hardy] trickle upload limit also limits wget download
Just tested... it seems that using -s wont change anything. BUT using -d parameter does affect the download speed. So this is a bug, because not using -d, and only -u, it limits the donwload to 10KiB/s and not the maximum of the connection. So the orginal reports is correct. ** Description changed: If I set trickle to limit my upload while using it to control a download, the download limit will be stuck a preset value: ~$ trickle -u 8 wget -c http://neacm.fe.up.pt/pub/ubuntu-releases/gutsy/ubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso - this should just limit my upload to 8KB/s, but what it does is to limit download rate at 10KB/s no mater what the upload limit I set. + this should just limit my upload to 8KiB/s, but what it does is to limit download rate at 10KiB/s no mater what the upload limit I set.

[Bug 193195] Re: [hardy] trickle upload limit also limits wget download
Hm, ok, there must be a more severe bug inside the program. The first thing you mentioned was the fact that trickle -u 8 wget -c http://neacm.fe.up.pt/pub/ubuntu-releases/gutsy/ubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso downloads only with 10 K/s and this can be explained by looking in the code above. Setting the -d option works, it your download will be as fast as you want to. So i checked out what goes on with the upload. I used the tool you proposed, nethogs: trickle -u 8 -d 1000 wget -c http://neacm.fe.up.pt/pub/ubuntu-releases/gutsy/ubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso Now nethogs shows me an upload value of ca. 6 k/s with short peaks at 12 K/s measured over 1 minute And now comes the really weired thing, exchanging the -u and the -d option, like you wrote above i get an upload value at ca. 34 K/s with peaks at 40 K/s which is all my connection is able to transfer. Maybe you can try exchanging the options and see if it does change anything. -- [hardy] trickle upload limit also limits wget download https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193195 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

well from my tests cases, even using: trickle -d 2048 -u4 wget -c http://neacm.fe.up.pt/pub/ubuntu-releases/gutsy/ubuntu-7.10-desktop-i386.iso will not limit the upload to 4KiB/s, so using -d just remove the hardcoded limit doesnt work. -- [hardy] trickle upload limit also limits wget download https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193195 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
