HOWTO : Home made NAS server with Ubuntu 8.04.1 – Part IV (a)
[HOWTO] 用Ubuntu 8.04.1搭建NAS服务器 – Part IV (a)
Since someone complained that Torrentflux with BitTornado eats a lot of CPU resources. I then switch to Torrentflux-b4rt with BitTornado. Torrentflux-b4rt is a fork of Torrentflux but it is completely rewritten by the developers for the current version. The current version is still in beta 2 at this writing.
因为很多人抱怨说Torrentflux with Bittornado消耗大量CPU资源。我换成使用Torrentflux-b4rt with BitTornado。Torrentflux-b4rt是Torrentflux的派生版本，当前版本是完全重写的。本文写时，仍然是beta2版本。
I have tested the torrent download at 1134.80 KB/s (one torrent) and it eats not more than 25% of CPU resources (according to the TOP). The overall CPU usage of the system is not more than 35% for the speed of download. Quite good indeed. It is better than Torrentflux.
我测试了1个BT种子，速度1134.80 KB/s，BT下载消耗CPU不超过25%。整个服务器的CPU使用率也没有超过35%。相当不错，比Torrentflux好得多。
Torrentflux-b4rt supports wget, torrent and nzb metafile type download method. The downloaded video clips can be used for streaming via VLC. B4rt also supports Transmission, Azureus, BitTorrent Mainline and BitTornado. However, I had tested the latest version of Transmission (1.32) unsuccessful – it is too slow to start the download and unable to stop the transfer. I think it is bugs. Azureus requires Java to run and I will not test it at all. BitTorrent Mainline is also not tested. Therefore, I selected BitTornado.
Torrentflux-b4rt支持wget,torrent,nzb等BT种子。下载的视频文件可以通过VLC提供Stream。b4rt支持Transmission, Azureus, BitTorrent Mainline and BitTornado。我测试了最新版本的Transmission (1.32)，不成功-启动下载太慢而且无法停止。我想是有bug。Azureus需要java环境，没有去测试。BitTorrent Mainline也没有测试。我选择的是BitTornado。
