Note it's the upload for that torrent (in the Uploaded column or Info tab) you should be checking. Even without anything else active, the counter in the status bar also includes protocol overhead and other "not real data" traffic.
Nonetheless, the numbers still don't add up. The mod takes your real upload in bytes and appends a single digit to it, so in principle there's no way 7 GB (or slightly less) should be counted as 19 times that much. To really know what happened I'd need to do a test run and collect announce logs... in the meantime, if you need a reliable multiplier, I recommend uSerenity or BiglyBT Extreme Mod; Ratio Faker and ProxyFake would also work in this particular scenario, as plab.site doesn't use HTTPS.
I applaud the fact you searched first, but don't see what's so ambiguous about "speed"? Well, it is true that torrent clients only report the amount of data, but by changing that and leaving the announce interval untouched, you effectively modify the (average) speed the tracker sees.Quote:
Actually, it's not (for me). When I read it first, I say to myself: "SPEED? What the hell he mean under "speed"??"
So, I go to explain in other threads on forum.
And ... in final ... speed ... ? ... or amount of data?..
