I can't believe how fast the interface is now. Don't know what benefitted more, the switch to rtorrent-ps, update to ruTorrent 3.9 or the php max memory limit. I started from scratch except copying the rtorrent.rc config file and rtorrent session folder. With the newest ruTorrent version the annoying scroll bug (keeps uncontrollably scrolling, happened when many torrents in current table) is fixed. The slightly bothersome warning triangle is now also gone, port is correctly showing as open. All in all 10/10, as a token of appreciation I send a little donation your way!

I just saw on Github that a new release will soon be coming. Maybe it got lost between all the posts: Can you change line 118 of install.sh (php memory limit) from 512M to 768M to improve ruTorrent performance with many torrents loaded? If you don't want to change the value I'd appreciate a short answer so I know not to annoy you anymore

I'm gonna be that guy and ask: ELI5 please? Why do arch linux people need to change ruTorrent code? I wanted to give a follow up of my previous post: Now have 2000 torrents loaded without any issue (hopefully the switch to rtorrent-ps will go smoothly, still on an older version), no slowdowns in sight. Nevertheless I'd appreciate it if you could increase PHP memory limit to 768M. It's what the "famous" tuner Andy10Gbit is using for his 10Gbps dedis. It shouldn't have any detrimental effect for low spec machines because it is only the max memory setting, thus only used if many torrents are loaded or there is a memory leak bug (which in that case should be fixed anyway). Thanks for all your hard work!

Sorry if it was ambiguous but my question was actually how much torrents one can have in ruTorrent with your 512MB PHP memory setting without getting any major issues. With the default 128MB it's usually around 4000 torrents. I have been able to find only a handful of posts which say increasing PHP memory can make ruTorrent stable with 4k+ torrents but nothing a little more specific. I do know that rTorrent can work even with 20k torrents but ruTorrent is the limiting factor. So I'm just searching for someone who can say e.g. "I am using rTorrentVPN with 9000 torrents without any major issue, just a little bit laggy". I'm not asking "what's the perfect PHP memory size setting". Just want to know how much I can push rTorrentVPN with your out of the box modified settings.

I saw that the php memory limit has been increased from 128M to 512M. # configure php memory limit to improve performance sed -i -e "s~.*memory_limit\s\=\s.*~memory_limit = 512M~g" "${php_ini}" Since this is one of the main reasons why ruTorrent gets unresponsive at around ~4000 torrents I'd love to hear what a realistic maximum is. I currently only have 1000, everything works fine but it's getting more and more and I'd appreciate it if someone could share what a relatively stable maximum is with the modified settings from Binhex.

tl;dr: 100% safe

I've searched for an answer to the following question, but couldn't find anything: Is it possible to run multiple instances of this rTorrentVPN container with the same VPN connection? I imagine that each container establishes its own VPN connection and many providers don't support/allow multiple connections. Or am I imagining this wrong and the VPN connection established e.g. in container rTorrentVPN 1 can be used/shared in rTorrentVPN container 2, 3, ... as well?
