Downloads stop at 98% then restart WTF???????
 
What is going on here.... downloads will invariably STOP at 98% and often sit there for hours without finishing... if it was just one jerk who disconnected it would be one thing, but this happens so much that I don't think it is the other person... It doesn't happen all the time, and it usually only happens with big files 200mb+

while it stoping is annoying, but not that bad, what really ****es me off, is that the downloads will often restart at like 20% WTF is going on, that is a lot of data that is being lost! what happened to it... I'm not sure, but I think it only happens when I close the program when the DL is at 98% for a while, as I haven't observed a restarted download otherwise, but I haven't actually seen it revert, just see a download that I saw a while ago at 98% at 25% and get ****ed off....

WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE????

When downloading form multiple hosts XoloX verifies the segments before putting them together. If a wrongly served segment is encountered it will be dropped. Henche why you'll see a drop in percentage since that part was downloaded and needs to be downloaded again from another client.
Got that?

hmmm...
 
I guess it would be nice then if it checked more often, its annoying to lose 80% of a 700mb file, that is fairly rare, and took you several days to get!

guess this should go in feature request...

I have never seen Xolox droping more than a few percent when receiving wrong data, so no need for a feature request? I posted in another thread a possibility to speed up creating the final file, which will also limit possible looses. There has been no response so far.
