High CPU usage with multiple engines #136

Hi, I tried to build a prototype mac app with electron (https://github.com/LeeChSien/electron-torrent). But if I download multiple files with multiple torrent-stream engines concurrently, the CPU usage seems too high. How can I solve this problem? Maybe reduce connections in the option?

mafintosh commented 8 years ago

how many connections are you using now?

LeeChSien commented 8 years ago

100 peers / engine.
