I know ideally you seed as much as you can, but I’m curious how much extra resources (memory, cpu, etc) each additional torrent you seed uses? I don’t mind the storage being used, but the box I have all my torrents on isn’t the most powerful and I’m nearing 100 torrents seeding and am a little concerned it may bottleneck the other stuff running at one point. Most aren’t actively seeding all the time, they just occasionally contribute here and there.

If you want transcoding then you want an Intel processor as their iGPUs can handle plenty of streams without breaking a sweat.

I’m just partial to AMD, and honestly the Ryzen 9 has absolutely blown my mind. That thing chews through 4k like nothing and barely breaks 100 degrees.
