Delete Torrent Data, high CPU load

Recommended Posts

When "Delete torrent + Data" is performed on torrent which has a lot (thousands) of files the explorer and utorrent will consume processing power of the system for exessive amount of time, minutes. I think the same will happen when "Delete Data" is performed.

I suspect that this happens because the programs spams system with vast amount of useless SHChangeNotify messages and this makes explorer to refresh all windows many many times.

I guess utorrent currently sends one SHCNE_DELETE message for every file it deletes, It might be sensible to send only one SHCNE_UPDATEDIR message per folder when all relevant files has been deleted inside.

I bit more information, when the bug strikes the thread running at address "utorrent+0x176cd" (uTorrent version 1.7.5) stays in running state as long as there is high load. Also all data in the main window does NOT update at all.

Hmmm new version, I'll try 1.7.7 when I have some time.
