| Preference | Default Value | Description |
| allpeers.bittorrent.port | 6881-6999 | The TCP port number on which the BitTorrent listen for connections. |
| allpeers.bittorrent.max_connection_attempts_at_once | 10 | Maximum number of establishing connections at one time. A higher value causes the BitTorrent to connect more peers faster, so better download speed can be observed at startup. It should not affect download speed at longer time period. |
| allpeers.bittorrent.max_uploads_when_leeching | 6 | Maximum number of peers we can upload to per torrent. If we have a fast network connection then a higher value can increase the download speed because of peer download/upload reciprocity. |
| allpeers.bittorrent.debug | false | If true then the debug menu could be seen in the BitTorrent view. See BT statistics logging for more details. |
| allpeers.bittorrent.debug.interval | 0 | Specify the interval in seconds when the BitTorrent statistics is dumped to the log file. See BT statistics logging for more details. |
| allpeers.bittorrent.maxconnections.pertorrent | 50 | Maximum number of connections per torrent. |
| allpeers.bittorrent.maxconnections.total | 200 | Total number of connection which the BitTorrent is allowed to establish. In other words, it is maximum number of connected peers at one time. |
