Sometimes I will host a torrent and seed it for about a day...

You would think that I would only be uploading material and not downloading anything... But that is not the case.

Every 12 hours of seeding or so it will show I downloaded 300mb of data (and maybe upped about 7.5GB's) Where is this data being stored on my computer?

Is it just taking up space some where?

Anyone know?
 
that's quite impossible if az says its only seeding.

are you using the latest 2.5.x version? (no 3 or anything lower than 2.5.0.0)

theres an immense amount of overhead used by the protocol but az does not record it..nor does it really do anything with that in general.

Damn I am a retard.

Azureus includes the size of the torrent as download size. lol
