What are seeds and peers when downloading?

Seeds are always standing for the uploaders in torrent file, the torrent files are automatically starting to seed after the torrent is downloaded, you can change in a options that you want to have a higher priority for the seeding or downloading. The peers are always standing for the number of downloaders. By Dave

Do the number of seeders and leachers matter when downloading torrents?

It would be better if there were more seeders, as it would download faster. Don't think number of leechers matters. Added by Krofs" Yes. The general rule here is to choose torrents that have a high seed to peer ratio. Seeds have 100% of the content associated with the torrent and are only uploading to peers. Peers also upload to other peers, but are also looking for other peers to upload to themselves and their download capacity is almost always higher than their upload capacity. This rule applies even though one swarm has significantly more active users than another. For example, a torrent with 30 seeders and 70 peers (30% seeders) will generally be faster than one with 500 seeders and 2500 peers (20% seeders) as the average upload capacity available to the peers will be higher. http://torrentfreak.com/how-to-pick-the-fastest-torrents-090707/ Optimizing Bittorrent Clients for Speed http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/optimizing-bittorrent-clients-speed.htm

What does peers in utorrent mean?

A peer in uTorrent is simply someone that has the file on their computer and is letting you leech off of them.Added by Krofs:There are two meanings to "peer"Those who have less than 100% of the content associated with the torrent. They download from seeds and other peers and upload to other peers. (Most bittorrent clients use the term this way).All of those active on a torrent, i.e., those who have 100% and those who have less than 100%. (Most torrent search sites use this definition).uTorrent uses definition 1 for peers.


Is it more risky to seed than download?

When you mention seeding and downloading together, I am assuming you're downloading illegally. That could be a potential risk. What you do online is upto you and you are responsible for your actions. But to answer your question, there is nothing risky about seeding or downloading. The more you seed, the better it is for others downloading whatever you're seeding.


How do you make torrent complete so fast?

Torrent speeds are dependent on the seeders and peers you are connected to. This is called a swarm. If there are alot of seeds/peers in your swarm there is a better chance you'll download faster as you can get information downloaded from more people (usually). Also it depends on the speed set by the seeder/peer, they might cap their upload limit or throttle it, another technique is to moniter the ratio (uploaded:downloaded ratio) of connected leechers (you) and throttle based on that ratio. As the file is shared to you and your peers, you all get little bits and pieces a little bit at a time, so if you have piece "a" and they have piece "b" you can get it from them and vice versa as well as from the seeders (original uploader and others with completed files). In short the more seeds/peers you can connect to the faster it goes (usually).
