aMule 2.0rc1 : my harddisk keeps loading forever
« on: March 28, 2004, 05:10:34 PM »
I switched from 1.2.6 to 2.0.0 and that was a disaster : when I launched it, my harddisk began to load heavily.
I though it was just to check the files. By it didn't stop.
I let it running for one full afternoon and at the end, my harddisk kept working...

I'm going to downgrade to 1.2.6 until this is fixed or I find a solution without losing my files :(

2.0.0 will rehash all your partfiles, thats the "problem" .. if you have many dl's it will take some time ..
maybe u should move some files from your temp dir, let amule rehash it and add then the other one.. try it

Nah, there's a bug inside. Really. For sure.

from our changelog:

 * Safer corrupt detection on FAT partitions
   I'm sorry if it rehashes every file on your system on restart, will be fixed.

Is this the "Use priority system" ?
I am wandering, is there a help that explains what all these options do?

No, i don't think my bug comes from the modifications made to the FAT32 code, coz my Linux box has only ext2 & ext3 partitions and my aMule Temp & Share directory is on my home directory on ext3.

This is a know old emule bug.
aMule developers have to correct surce code so that hashing and completing must be done on ONE FILE AT TIME , not all the file together 8o !!!!!!!!!!!
This is a REAL problem when having a lot of files in queue or you fail to complete a lot of file that starts to transfer to incoming all at the same time.
Your machine gets hung !!:evil:

Sure, I have often the download windows filled up of status "hashing" and my hard disk keeps rolling for hours  (damn PII & ATA33)
I'm sure that 1.2.6 hashes and completes in parallel, not 1 at time sequentially.
Please verify this in the sources, I'm not a coder.:]
