i used Mainline DHT over years with IPv6 and ipv4. It gives you many more peers ! Because vuze only have around million. While Mainline DHT is 25x times bigger Peer pool. For compatiblity and fallback please bundle this for default user.

or we could have an option like
"only track torrents when Tracker is unavailable (torrent has no tracker or tracker is down) and when dht fails (no peers / seeds)"

thanks

can we have the option:
"However, perform low resource tracking when online for swarm cross-population"
for the mainline dht plugin too

thanks

as usual thanks very much

it seems to me, (but i'm no one) that utorret/bittorent (client) = bittorrent (protocol),
i have nothing against utorrent, but what they do becomes a standard, what other clients do is "garbage" (this word is excessive but i don't know english very well), and i don't like this.
so every client have to follow utorent, and for me this means less research and less improvement in the bittorent protocol (luckily there is vuze)

regarding the Multi-Port Trackers plugin, should it be marked as deprecated ?

thanks

Always a bit disappointing that they went and did their own DHT, but that's the way things go.

The multi-port tracker plugin is a bit of a strange beastie, it was originally created for some very specific tracker cases, long time ago, and I'd be surprised if it did anything useful with any 'modern' trackers these days...

from wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mainline_DHT):

"Mainline DHT is the name given to the Kademlia-based Distributed Hash Table (DHT) used by BitTorrent clients to find peers via the BitTorrent protocol. The idea of utilizing a DHT for distributed tracking was first implemented in Azureus 2.3.0.0 (now known as Vuze), from which it gained significant popularity. BitTorrent, Inc. then incorporated a similar DHT into their client, called Mainline DHT and thus popularized the use of distributed tracking in the BitTorrent Protocol."

why did bittorrent inc. make its own implementation? :)

in this old thread (http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=3387) you can read:
"Azureus's implementation is WAY better than Mainline's"
i don't know if things are different now

a nice off-topic article pro vuze:
Make the most of public torrents (speed/performance & security):
http://torrentfreaknews.blogspot.it/2013/03/make-most-of-public-torrents.html

and what do you think about the Multi-Port Trackers plugin (http://plugins.vuze.com/plugin_details.php?plugin=multi-ports).
could be it also bundled with vuze

thanks

Agree with you! I think they need to see if the plugin have some incomptibility before releasing it by default.

Excellent Ideia, and thanks the creator of the plugin for giving us the opportunitie to access the MainlineDHT.
