Falcon Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Can someone give me an explanation of what the numbers that appear on the info tab mean? So for example I get something like: Seeds: 4 out of 30 connected (50 in swarm)Peers: 3 out of 5 connected (7 in swarm) What I want to know is, what does the "out of x" number mean? Why is it smaller than the swarm number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Feit Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 The "out of" number is the number that your client DIRECTLY knows about. The "in swarm" number is passed along by the tracker(s) on the torrent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you expand on that a bit, please? What do you mean by "directly"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
