Client stops seeding all the torrents when disk space allocation takes place. #12040

qBittorrent version and Operating System

qBittorrent 4.2.1 Windows 10 1909 10.0.18363

What is the problem

I have 3 disks that are a storage for my qBitTorrent. When I add a file it starts to allocate space on that disk, but instead of continuing seeding torrents from other disks it just stops everything and wait for the allocation to complete. When I add a 45GB file it takes 20 min+ without seeding other torrents.

image In this picture only 1 disk allocates space, but others do nothing.

I think this issue is due to use of less I/O threads. All threads are busy allocating space.
