Thanks to this Lemmy I entered the magic world of private trackers, and now the list of torrents I keep seeding is growing by the day. How can I detect when the number of torrents is detrimental to the functioning of the network? What is a reasonable ball park estimate of active (even if “dormant”) torrents?

I believe most clients allow you to limit the upload rate so I would set that to something that is less than your max upload rate so that it almost never causes an issue. The limit of torrents it more limited by your network and what your computer can handle.

Yep. Some torrents are low bandwidth and you can have a lot. Sometimes it seems you’re connecting to an AWS server and all of the sudden you’re saturated.
