Hi all,

I started using the queue in my deluge install with the automatic rotation, as seeding 1000+ torrents simultaneously was causing performance and network issues. My downloads and uploads are a lot more active now, but the big issue I'm encountering is I will accrue HnRs on certain trackers when a torrent it rotated out of seeding.

Is there a way to force new torrents to stay actively seeding for X period of time? Even better, a way to force it only on specific torrents?

I do have an idea in mind of how to accomplish this:

  • Set up a watch dir for torrents that need to seed for lets say, 2 weeks minimum

  • Have that watch dir add torrents with auto manage turned off and add a specific "force seed" tag or something to identify them.

  • Create a script that will query deluge for the force seeded torrents, and if they have been added more than two weeks ago, turn auto manage back on and remove the force seed tag

  • Run that script on a cronjob every night

I believe the above should work, but it does seem overly complex. Any ideas?

I got one of the framework laptop over a year ago and it's been fantastic other than having a defective trackpad (which took all of 10 minutes to replace after receiving a free replacement part from their support team). I will even be able to upgrade to a newer mainboard with an AMD CPU from the current 11th gen intel later this year when the boards start shipping.

It really grinds my gears when companies claim that repairable devices aren't possible to make in modern form factors, especially when a rinky dink startup was able to do it.
