 Re: Very slow opening share library
Quote: Originally posted by Unregistered
Both my library list and my list of shares seem very very slow to open up.
I just upgraded to 2.5.5, and had been running 2.3.2.
Under 2.3.2, it found all 600-odd files in a second or two, and all of them showed up in the library.
Under 2.5.5, it shows only 1 or 2 to start, and adds another every few seconds. (It's not a constant length of time between changes.)
The system has basically no load except LimeWire and KDE. CPU usage is < 2%.
System is a 1.2 GHz Athlon, with 1 GB of ram.
I had downloaded the latest Sun JRE, 1.4.0_01. I had JRE 1.4.0 before. I tried 2.5.5 with both, and it didn't make any difference.
Tried firing up 2.3.2 again, and it runs fine.
Wanted to check here before I reported it as a bug.
Anybody know of a fix? | First see the link - the short answer is this version of Limewire employs hashing... this takes a couple of seconds for each file you are sharing (to create the hash).. it only has to do it once so this will clear up after all the files are hashed...  |
