I know ideally you seed as much as you can, but I’m curious how much extra resources (memory, cpu, etc) each additional torrent you seed uses? I don’t mind the storage being used, but the box I have all my torrents on isn’t the most powerful and I’m nearing 100 torrents seeding and am a little concerned it may bottleneck the other stuff running at one point. Most aren’t actively seeding all the time, they just occasionally contribute here and there.
I seed at least 10 files at the same time on my main desktop and the CPU usage used by the program I use never goes above 0.5%, I can play and do everything I normally do and never have to stop seeding files. In the HDD usage I honestly don’t know, although the games I play are on the same HDD that is currently seeding.
