Can't seem to keep 1.11 up and running. Any suggestions?
Both issues (locup with 100% SPU and thread usage) have been researched and reported, and will probably be fixed in 1.12.

Threads/Directories:
Five directories total, or 5 in the list, with a bunch of sub-directories? (Movies sorted by content, Audio sorted by artist and CD, etc.) Subtract 5 from the number of threads shown in taskman and compare that to the total number of (sub)directories you are sharing (remember to add 1 for the xolox/downloads dir) It should be the same. If not it's a new bug that I haven't seen before.

Lockups/CPU uage:
Does this happen every time you start up? Open a cmd box and type netstat, see if you are conencting to yourself on a loopback address. (127.x.x.x) If you are, and every time you connect, delete hostslist.txt and see if it stops. If not, it's a new bug that hasn't been seen. (at least not by me.)
