If there are less than 5 seeds, then I keep sending indefinitely. Above that, I'll consider deleting it to free up space once I'm done with the media.

Unless it's getting a private tracker, in which case I'll just seed everything forever to get the sweet bonus points.

How does that work, does the downloader just cycling though seeding torrents or do they all stay active? I feel like there would be so much torrents over time it would slow everything down.

I looked it up, and qBittorrent can easily handle hundreds of torrents, apparently. I haven't noticed any problems running 180-ish. I'll probably try to keep it capped to 300 or something like that.

Does it matter how many files are in each torrent?

I would think a 100 file torrent would be more intensive than a 3 file torrent.
