What is the issue?

When transmission has one or multiple huge torrent files added (>1TB), then startup of transmission-daemon takes several minutes. This means that the systemd startup script will also run into a timeout.

I believe the best way to address this is to do an "initial" startup where all basic functionality is established and a startup notification is sent to systemd, and then perform a full startup where torrent blocks are verified and actual transfers happen.

Which application of Transmission?

transmission-daemon

Which version of Transmission?

4.0.6 (38c164933e)
