I set 20 connections for posting and yet i get 2.5 MB// when i post via jbinup for instance i get 5.5MB.. Am i doing something wrong?

you can try to set the same number of connections in both programs.

secondly the difference maybe using SSL or not, check if everything is exactly the same.

they are the same. 20 there and here. /

i dont use SSL.

maybe try to uncheck keep alive in properties->general (just to troubleshoot, don't forget to check it later).

check processor usage, if no CPU core is saturated it means there is no CPU bottleneck, if no CPU bottleneck no reason there will be a bandwidth limit unless you set it in the tasks pane.

tried it, still the same 2.5-2.8
there are no limits set in properties ;(

could you try to check it out somehow? on a fast line.

1. check CPU usage, if a core gets saturated, but then it would be the main thread and the program would freeze, work threads are very simple there, I don't think it is CPU.

2. in post settings check part size (number of lines), if it is too small comparatively there may be more disk thrashing.

3. if it is not the reasons above try to create RAM drive in winxp and put all files there then check the speed again, so we know it is not file operations to blame.

For posting I checked now UE has read file bufferization, but it writes into sockets line by line, if it is not above (at least not 2. or 3.) we could try to add more sizeable output buffer.

i usually post with 3000 lines.
i tried to do it with 5000 and 7000(default in UE)
No effect

20 connections for posting

1) system load, 7000 lines, uploading from hdd

2) system load,7000 lines, uploading from SSD (soft RAM disks are buggy so i didnt use it)

3)JbinUp, uploading from hdd ( system load a bit higher due to JAVA written application)

I think it is winsock doesn't work efficiently when it is fed using small buffer, not urgent, we'll test it towards the next version, also I wanted to built-in par2 file creation without using command line utility to avoid windows command line length limit, but didn't find time for that yet.

Hello Alex

Anything planned for the future releases related to improving upload speed?
