I dont know if its been done already [I cannot find reference to it anywhere], but I thought of an option to have eMule+ download parts that have the lowest number of sources first.
Reduces problem of being stuck with nearly completed file. |

QUOTE(reanimated838uk @ Mar 17 2007, 16:09) it already does this I believe.  I thought it might...but it must be automatic. So can the part priority be set to different things, like source with highest speed - most parts - etc. Or a weighted priority calculated from all options. How is part priority calculated ATM? |

When you get a download session the priority is this:
1: Download any partially downloaded chunk 1.5: Download First/Last chunk, if enabled for this file 2: Download rarest chunk 3: Download any other chunk |

QUOTE(Fuxie - DK @ Mar 17 2007, 08:24) 1: Download any partially downloaded chunk It's more complicated then brief idea mentioned here, but in general:1.5: Download First/Last chunk, if enabled for this file 2: Download rarest chunk 3: Download any other chunk 1: Download First/Last chunk, if enabled for this file 2: Download rarest chunk (in general, <= 4 sources) 3: Download any partially downloaded chunk (most complete first) 4: Download any other chunk (chunk with less source first) |

hello
can this feature that is implemented in emule o.47c help? ZZ Chunk chooser: Download complete chunks faster! This chunk selection algorithm naturally tries to pick the most rare chunk for download from a client. However, if there's no rare chunk to pick it will download on the chunk that is closest to completion, even if some other client is already sending some other part of this chunk. This will make ZZUL download different parts of the same chunk from several sources at the same time, and the time from the chunk is started until it's complete will be minimized. Official client will go out of its way to download from different chunks when there are several clients sending the file at one. You will notice that due to this ZZUL will mostly have only one chunk started+incomplete for each file while the official client often have several incomplete chunks at once. A complete chunk can be shared. A started+incomplete chunk can not. |
