Uploading torrents flood cache of any size

Post by Dichotomy »

Hi, guys!

Any solution for torrents flooding all the cache of any size while active upload has place?

Uploading torrents flood cache of any size. The only solution I invented yet is to put torrents to separate logical drive which I don't like due to it's fixed size.

PS Will Windows ever learn to create a flexible size volumes, like macOS did?

This is the same problem as many users have with backup software.

You can temporarily pause the cache or freeze the cache (available in the next release) when you upload torrents.

Will this impact the write caching too or only the read caching?

It's similar to "Pause" the cache, but it still can provide read caching with existing cached data. Write caching will be stopped.

Apple somehow solved that. Their Fusion Drive hard-/software doesn't degrade during torrent giveaway
