This patch report is very old. If the bug still exists in current
versions please post a new bug report - spiralvoice

I was just evaluating mldonkey. It has been running > 15hrs now and just NOW I am experiencing the same problem with upload larger than it should be
The problem is, upload limiting does work for transfers but I just took an "out-time" with "nu 60" and still I am exceeding 14+KBytes / sec. Then I went to look with a network sniffer on the linux server and I saw that mldonkey is NOT uploading a single file. However, it IS asking many many peers for files. All packets are around size 15, 30 and 60 bytes, so very small. But there are SO MANY of them that it saturates my upstream !
In short: mldonkey (version 2.0 release linux shared binary) seems to cap uploads but not meta-data/search upstream
I have an ethereal packet dump of a few seconds where mldonkey shows this behaviour. If the developers want it, just email me at -unavailable-

poelzi meant, that you can create a single account only for mldonkey, and shape the traffic for this account (eg. "leech"). Well , it works for me :)

well, just set it the uprate value to 5 as i did.
iptraf says outgoing rate is about 9-10kbyte/s, which
doesn't actually fit in the limitation, but my remaining 8kbyte/s bandwith is enough to manage other tcp/ip stuff

Darn, Even with the 'new' 2.0 so called 'stable' release this bug has not been fixed!
I set the cap to 10KB, but the §$%§! thing just ignores it and pumps out at 20KB at this point my provider disconnects me.
And please do not tell me to limit my overall-output like poelzi tried as I have more than one process on my box that needs some bandwitdh
Thanks

I use
http://fiaif.fugmann.dhs.org/ firewall and patched them for adding own rules. The patch is padded for adding into the distrbution but can get it from
http://files.poelzi.org/patches/fiaif/addbands.tar.gz
good look :)

max_hard_upload_rate = 15 works fine with me...
a workaround for users that are deconnected by their own provider would be to use QoS to limit bandwith usage on donkey ports.

update (me again)
just read the releasenotes of mldwatch 1.7 and found a bug report on the up/down speed shown in the statusbar.
unfortunateley this does not have anything to do with the problem of too high up/down rates i experienced

update concerning my post from 2002-Sep-16 02:39 (the huge one) : it's not only the downstream bw that's completely sucked up by mld, even the upstream is at 128kbit/s.
-
sure @ mldonkey, now i updated to mld1.99b8 and mldwatch 1.7.
the gui pretends to upload about 3-4kbytes/s with a given limit of value "10". [kilobytes per second, aight? ;) ]
but iptraf shows me an output bandwith of about 135 kbit/s.
(yes i checked iptraf even when mld was offline, and it was about 8kbit/s).
maybe it's not a transfer sucking up my bandwith, because mld found about 2600 sources for one file, but i limited the value to 1000. could this be the reason why i have no bandwith left?
ppp0 receives 45000 packets per minute, almost 98% for mld.

Don't forget these options are in kB/s and not kb/s
Next CVS snapshot will indicate in the GUI the uploaded/downloaded bytes.

Hi
I use the same provider, and limitated my bandwith in mld 1.16 to 80/10 k/s, and it works pretty fine.
However, from time to time, my mld seems not to update his serverlist after restart (although 4 .met's are in the downloads.ini), and starts starving around with about 40 servers.
So i used the mld 1.99 beta5 core (just because of the nice windows-gui that's around),and now it seems to me that mld 1.99 has severe problems with bandwith limitation.
mld1.99 always seems to suck up the whole downstream bandwith, no matter which limit is set.As my linuxserver is used as a router to, it comes extremely unhandy that there's almost no downstream bandbwith available (even smallhonkclients like irc or icq can't connect to their servers - same applies to the browsers.)
have a nice day

I have it too, it´s fucked up, because my hole house is on a router, and when mldonkey is running, the other computers can´t surf in the Internet!!!!

Hi,
I live in Germany and can only upstream with 16KB/s (capped by the German Telekom).
And if I set my mldonkey-upstream to 15 I am experiencing the problem, that mldonkey does not stick to its limitation, it always tries tries to send more than it can send and my Provider then allways disconnects me.
I am using mldonkey 1.16
