Re: bitcoin-qt using a lot of outgoing bandwidth, is this normal?
Hello
Since the april 10 "crisis"
I have noted that bitcoin-qt wallet is using a lot of outgoing bandwidth, almost 90% of my capacity
I have between 20 and 60 connections to the bitcoin network, any idea if this is normal?
If I shutdown bitcoin-qt the traffic stops.
is there is any way to limit the outgoing bandwidth that it uses? I have no problem helping bitcoin network but when I am unable to work because of low remaining bandwidth is another matter
thanks
Indkt.

Sounds normal. I usually hover between 50 and 60 connections, but I limit my entire network outgoing bandwidth in my router (my ipcop linux box, actually) to 500kbps. I leave my machine on 24x7.
