Alt.Binz unresponsive at high speeds
« on: September 25, 2011, 11:13:07 AM »
Hi,

When I download at high speeds (9.5 - 10MB/s)  Alt.Binz (0.39.2) becomes unresponsive and doesn't refresh the current speed in the status bar. The CPU is at 100% load. What can I do to make it usable without limiting the download speed?

My system is a Core 2 E6300 @ 1.86, 3GB RAM. I'm planning to upgrade but it's still a decent system.

Thanks.

0.40 will hopefully resolve that issue.

You've tested with same NZB? Multiple times? Are you 100% sure 0.39.8 is the last one with "normal" cpu usage?

It's hard to see what could have caused significant differences in speed between .11 and .12 if this is the changelog:

Quote
+ rename extracted files instead of overwrite/skip [https://www.altbinz.net/forum/requests/renaming-instead-overwriting-identical-unrar-files/]
+ browsing, switching pages, opening weblinks & images in omgwtfnzbs tab
* execute command not working on manual unrar

I also noticed 100% CPU at high speeds. I have a Core 2 Duo t7300 @ 2ghz and 4 gb ram with 64 bit win7. I had it with the free version .4 but also with the latest .12

hello together,

thanks for the hint.
Alt.Binz 0.39.15 freeze after seconds or minutes just after downloading some files. I´m using a PC with AMD Phenom II X4 955 processor and 4 or 8 GB RAM with dual boot (win XP or 7).
I now reinstalled version 0.39.11 and got no freezes so far. I think the freezes were caused from the high cpu usage.

Hope it will be fixed in the next version of Alt.Binz.

Thanks and good bye.

I've been noticing the same issue ever since I upgraded my connection to 150mbit. Is this still on the list to be fixed in .40?
