--- Comment #7 from Marcus Blomenkamp mblomenk@gmx.de 2008-08-20 16:01:20 --- Simple testcase: 1. install uTorrent 2. verify in uTorrents advanced settings that diskio.sparse_files is set to false 3. load a torrent and start it
As soon as uTorrent has one piece completed it will create the to-be-downloaded file with target filesize. Then it will write piece data into the file.
Under Unix the above results in having a sparsefile that is filled with piece data in order of download (which in the end gives a fragmented file) while under Windows this results in having a normal 'preallocated' file.
The unix sparsefile can be verified by running 'ls -ls $FILENAME' and the Windows normal file can be verified in various places (explorer, increased diskusage, file-properties, etc...).
If you do not want to install uTorrent, i can also give you a complete trace, but i don't think you will gain more information than what can be read from the attached trace already.
BTW: how can this bug be linked to the AppDB? Currently uTorrent is listed with platinum status.
