[Bug 445592] Re: Transmission Ext4 / data loss?

[John Dong]

Not surprising due to delayed allocation, if cache writeout pressure
isn't high then this will happen. The "workaround" would be for
transmission to periodically flush the filesystem but that'll just cause
awful IO spiking latency and defeat the purpose of delayed allocation.

If you'd rather not lose that much data, then perhaps you need a more
aggressive dirty_writeback_centisecs value.
