New Download Engine

With this release Phex features a completely rewritten download engine. It is much more stable, offers faster overall download speed, allows easy file previews, and gives you a more in-depth view of what is going on behind the scenes.
You will have a multi-part progress bar, that shows you exactly what parts of the file you have already downloaded and what your sources are sharing.
You can adjust the internal download part selection algorithm to choose if you like to download the least available file parts first, prioritize the file beginning, end or both or if Phex should select parts completely random.

Even though we did our best to convert your old downloads into the new system, we recommended finishing all important ongoing downloads with the old Phex version before updating. We are not sure if conversion of downloads succeeds in all cases.

UDP Host Cache Support

Phex comes with a new UDP host cache support. UDP host caches are used as an distributed bootstrapping system to connect to the network much faster then before. Thanks to Madhu for the implementation.

Phex Updates

With this release Phex offers the ability to download future Phex releases directly within Phex multi-source download engine. All that's left for you to do is to install the completed download. Thanks go to ArneBab for this feature.
