    If you must know, I seed my public tracker torrents to a ratio of 10:1. That’s why I have a router-level VPN config. Someone’s gotta do it.

      Okay but why not set up a separate/dedicated route for that traffic?

      Not that I disapprove of what/how you’re doing, curious because it’s what I do. I’d assume you’ve got a VM or node other than your workstation hosting your torrent client, otherwise this method doesn’t make sense.

        The VPN runs on my router and my torrent client runs on my server. Anyhow, why would I want only some of my traffic to go through VPN when I can send it all through?

      Fighting the good fight. I have about 25 torrents that have one one seed, me, and can’t be otherwise purchased. I just leave them on unlimited ratio and feel better when every I see a leech connect.
