Splitting up torrent files.
Casper
via web
Hey Put.io mates! And once again thanks for this awesome
service! I just wondered if it is possible to split up the
torrents, so that an torrent file with etc. 3 image files in it,
and you choose to only download the 2 of them. Just like any other
torrent program. It would save you guys some GB's of download,
though it wouldnt touch our bandwidth, since we can just not
download it from put.io then :) But anyways..
It could had gotten handy some times for me thats for sure, also
concidering the fact that the download will be alot faster, if you
"Unwink" an 4gb image file etc..
I guess there have been a question like this before, I just wasnt
able to find it in the section :p
Best Regards
Casper

Hi Casper,
So sort it took us so long to respond. Yes, this is one of the most asked questions. Unfortunately controlling things at this granular level creates too much overhead for our torrent clients (many many clients) We had to make a decision while building put.io and we decided to build for maximum fetchability, if that's a word :)
