This new version doesn't support OS X 10.4.11 anymore (although you can download the 10.4.11 version here) but brings many more improvements to an already solid release. You can set different priority levels for torrents and establish stall limit times. Transmission's speed limit mode, represented by a turtle icon at the bottom of the interface, is extremely useful if you're looking to control the amount of bandwidth you use for uploads and downloads. The option for anonymous connections has been removed in this latest version however.
Transmission For Mac Client Download
Transmission has consistently improved over time, offering many more options to view your torrents. You can now filter your torrent list according to downloading, seeding, or paused. The client can also organize transfers by queue order, date added, name, process. Transmission also allows you to label, filter and sort torrents by groups and total activity. You can also encrypt your torrent activity in case you want it to stay private.
Fixes a crash that prevented Transmission from opening on non-English systems. Auto-grouping won't apply until torrents are demagnetized Tweak the inspector's and add window's file lists to avoid auto-hiding scrollbars overlapping the priority controls Fix potential crash when downloading and seeding complete at the same time Fix bug where stopped torrents might start when waking the computer from sleep Fix a bug that prevented IPv6 addresses from being saved in dht.dat Better handling of magnet links that contain 'tr.x=' parameters Add filtering of addresses used for uTP peer connections Fix detection of whether or not a peer supports uTP connectionsWeb Client: Fix a multi-file selection bug Fix bug where the upload and download arrows and rates would not appear for downloading torrents Fix bug when displaying the tracker list

This software is no longer available for the download. This could be due to the program being discontinued, having a security issue or for other reasons.
Over the weekend, the first instance of Mac ransomware was found in a malicious update to the Transmission BitTorrent client. Version 2.90 of Transmission downloaded from the Transmission website was infected with "KeRanger" ransomware.
During the time that the malware-infected version of Transmission was available, it was downloaded approximately 6,500 times before the vulnerability was discovered. Security on the server has since been increased, ensuring a similar attack can't occur a second time.
Customers who have downloaded the Transmission BitTorrent client should make sure they have updated the software to version 2.92, which will remove the malware from infected computers. Additional details on how to determine if you have the malware installed are available through Palo Alto Networks.
Quite simply, depending upon how this option is set, Transmission would switch from downloading by availability (good for the swarm) or downloading chunks in order of first to last (earlier elements of a torrent are available sooner, potentially even usable if a file is capable of being streamed).
Default priority would have Transmission choose based on availability; i.e - if a torrent's pieces have good availability then it doesn't matter much if you download in-order, whereas for newer/less popular torrents it is more important to download with as much distribution of chunks as possible to ensure availability.
Second, if a torrent has good availability, then even if hundreds of peers were to suddenly appear forcing in-order only downloads, then it's highly unlikely that they'd all be downloading at the same speeds (setting in-order only downloads would actually ensure this by limiting their selection of chunks), this means faster in-order only peers will quickly pass slower ones, and thus become available to seed chunks to the slower peers as they catch up.
Finally, as I say, the most basic options are only intended to set a priority for in-order downloading. If availability is poor, then Transmission would still be free to download in a more distributed fashion, the priority simply determines the threshold (number of 100% complete seeders) below which availability is considered to be poor. While I do think a setting to force no threshold at all should be provided as a choice (e.g - if you're determined to stream a torrent), it obviously comes with the caveat that you may force a torrent to stall.
To summarise; once a torrent passes a decent amount of availability in the swarm it stops being so important that new peers download blocks randomly. Besides which, if multiple peers are downloading in-order, then they're essentially self-sustaining, as the peers that have the faster download speeds are able to seed to slower in-order downloaders, so as long as there's enough availability to satisfy the faster in-order peers, the slower ones aren't a problem at all.
Besides which, not everyone is going to switch to in-order downloading, and like I say in the proposal, Transmission would still default to distributed downloading if availability is poor. This downloading method could also be set per-torrent rather than globally, so it only applies to certain torrents that may be usable while downloading.
As I pointed out; over time the swarm will still gain additional complete copies of the torrents, so availability still increases.Besides which, even if there were a sudden surge of clients all downloading in-order, then they effectively cater for themselves as some pull ahead, increasing availability of the most in-demand chunks of the torrent(s) for others.
The only cases where availability would actually be affected would be if in-order downloaders kept dropping part way through, but the proportion doing that would have to be extremely high to have any real impact, and it would only matter if there aren't any out-of-order downloaders in the swarm. As I put in my proposal the feature would switch to out-of-order downloading if availability was particularly poor, but once a torrent reaches a critical mass it simply doesn't matter if someone wants to download everything in order.
This is why I specified in the original post that, by default, the feature would only download in order once the number of available copies reaches a certain amount. So if you're trying to download a brand new torrent it would still do so out-of-order until the number of copies is high enough. The setting itself is used to determine what that threshold is; not sure what the sweet spot would be, probably should be based on the size of the torrent. 2ff7e9595c
