Ive successfully downloaded 2 to 3 files at once of about 350GB in size each.
Yes, it does make the phone less responsive but I only do this over night when not using the phone for anything else.

How did you get 350GB onto the phone?

I ain't touching this with a barge pole. I've just read through all 16 pages of this thread. The original developer (Qwert12) couldn't be bothered with it, then OptX stepped up and tried to further develop it and now that feckless superhero can't be bothered with it.

I've read so many problems with this throughout the thread, including someone who had their whole filesystem changed to Read Only.

Seriously, I think this thread should be locked and people should steer well clear of installing this amateurish garbage on their phone.

Works fine here. Downloaded tons of tv rips with it. Just make sure to set download dir to the microsd card.

sudo gainroot
cd (to place where you downloaded libevent)
dpkg -i libevent(just press Tab to autocomplete name)

Don't no if this post belongs in here but seeing as transmission has a bug or 3 and can lag the system and causes memory corruption i thought id make a suggestion

I've been using qBittorrent which is built using Qt. Ive got it running on my home file server

Would a port of this be possible to the N900 and would it run any better than transmission?

Heh. I thought it might have been but had to check incase there was super duper compression technique used to get all that on. You never know with this phone lol.
