Trackers are software running on a server that joins the people uploading the files to those downloading them. What trackers do is that when you start a download, your torrent client connects to the tracker and searches if anyone has the file, to which hopefully several clients reply saying they do and connect to them to get it.
Another interesting thing to note is that Trackers works both ways, which means if you have any file that others want, the trackers will immediately let the other people’s clients know about it.
Does adding more trackers speed up torrent downloads?
Yes, of course! Adding more trackers speeds up torrent downloads. This is because trackers allow peers to connect. Adding more trackers means having more options for peers to connect to, which speeds up the download speeds.
