Switching the cables and using the onboard ethernet for the local network and the PCI NIC card for the external connection did not resolve the problem. After a while (usually within two hours) the computer responds very sluggish, if at all. All the instances of transmissioncli are in D state and the load average is in the 40ies, even though the CPU is almost completely idle and the RAM is not completely used and the swap almost completely unused. I've also tried to put all instances of transmissioncli at nice 19, with the same results. Waiting longer means that the system becomes completely unresponsive, it's like a black hole.
Two debugging test I have left is to limit the number of connection per torrent and running the torrents on a computer on the internal network to see if the same happens. -- [Hardy] system freeze when downloading torrents https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/235470 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
