search problems when there are lots of results
 

Greetings,

Every time i try to use the "What's new search", phex gui freezes and my CPU goes to 100%.

Phex works good until the search number becomes >20K.

I've also tried to stop the search before it gets 20000 results, but despite showing an 100% progress bar the search number keeps increasing and eventually it freezes the app.

How do you get over 20k results?

I ask, because I get far fewer results...

How many connections does your Phex have?

Which version of Phex do you use?

On which Operating System?

Honestly, i'm not having 20k results anymore... Maybe because i've never used the "what's new search" before?
I have 50 connections...

Meanwhile, if this happen again i'll post a screenshot! ;)

thanks!

And I'm glad it works seamlessly, now!

After a couple of months using the competition (gtk-gnutella) i got back to phex.

I tried the what's new search and the result is attached...

The symptoms were the same: CPU at 100%, the result number keeps increasing, the connections speed drop..

I use the version 3.2.0.102, java 6, archlinux distro

Could you try doing the search again (as you did the last time)?

Then, maybe, we can assume that it's some "first time what's new" search problem or similar.

Can you see where the results come from (check the sources)?

Might it be possible that some host just sends its whole list of files?

Best wishes,
Arne

I just tried 3 times now, and all got the same problem.

It appears to be completely random.

If you look with atention you'll see that i'm getting 3422 hits for the file LimeWireWin4.14.10.exe.
Also i'm getting 9 connections as a leaf when i should be getting 4

And BTW the theme isn't saved after i close the phex, it always goes back to skyblue.

Regards

p.s.: Sorry about the grayscaled image, but it was getting hard to compress under the 100K

I tried and tried and never made it above 400-500 results...

Can you please sort by host and check if you have multiple files with many hits like the LimeWireWin4.14.10.exe.

Today i'm only get 5000 results.
With 5000 results i get:
480 hits for LimeWireWin4.14.10.exe
51 hits for LimeWireWin4.14.8.exe
32 hits for nigga hood georgia rule soundtrack remix.wma
14 hits for uninstall.exe
13 hits for uninstall.exe
...

This might be a LimeWire problem... Maybe some LWs go rabid and forward the What's New search too far...

How long have you been connected, when that happened?
