This shouldn't be a problem.
I have automated reseeding enabled at the moment, so it should pick up any slack.
I scrape (up to) the first 8 pages of the "orphans" list once every hour between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. and automatically locate/reload any torrents in my archive (there's usually only 3-5 pages for me these days).
So if a torrent has 0 seeders and at least 1 leecher it will get restarted.
Looks like it has reloaded ~230 over the last 24 hours (that feels like a slight uptick).
~1TB of reseeds in the last month and ~5TB over the last 4 months since i set it up.
If the torrent matches any fileset i've downloaded from Etree/TTD/LL then it gets restarted (i dedupe exact matches across trackers to optimize storage capacity).
There are about 40-50 that consistently show up in the orphans list that i can't fill because i only restart 100% completed torrents (no reason to tease anyone with incompletes).
Most of these 40-50 i have less than 100%, for whatever reason, so they get blacklisted, the others who knows...
Over at LL i have automated reseeds set to a very strict idle timeout of 2 hours so they stop as quickly as possible (they have tracker capacity concerns so i honor that) but here i've just been letting them run after restart and every few days going in and stopping anything without recent activity. No need to announce torrents nobody's looking for or anything that is already being filled by others.
My general TTD settings are 2x share ratio or 48 hours idle timeout for new torrents before they get archived and moved to long term storage for automated reseeding.
That process usually happens overnight and within a week (thus the overnight pause in restarting reseeds while im rsyncing data around).
Bottom line, if you are looking for anything that has zero seeders, start it up and there's a fair chance you will get an automated fill
