MUTE MFC 0.0.3 pre-release out now

[Markus]

From JROC:

Ok folks...  I couldn't take it any longer.. the
performance of the MFC MUTE 0.0.2 had gone to hell now
that the MUTE network has been picking up.

I revamped the search request handling so that the
local shared files are cached in memory and the cache
is refreshed about every 10 minutes...

the results... way way better performance for
downloads, uploads, and searching, not to mention
returning search results much quicker... and the best
part... CPU usage has dropped a lot...

I am testing it right now.. if it goes well I will put
it up (debug compiled .EXE only) for people to
download...  I really think we need to stress for MFC
users to get this one soon, so the overall network
will benefit from it!

I'm downloading with some pretty sweet speeds and the
CPU is just oscillating between 6 and 15%, but I am
hashing in the background...

I'm trying it out right now. It's great how low the cpu usage is, it's a huge improvement.

kept prerelease 0.0.3 running for several hours; stable and low cpu usage. unfortunately i couldn´t connect to more than 3 nodes at the same time...

Look for the official release soon...

Nate of NapShare has made some keen improvements to the underlying routing of MUTE and it has been incorporated into my debug code at the moment, so it will be in the next release.

Also, there have been some improvements with the search-download-queue stuff.  Now if you search for a file that happens to be "queued" and you double click/download it from the search screen, it will remove it from queue and start downloading it.  Also there is a new right click option to make a queued item the next item that will be searched in the queue.... it's not the most elegant implementation, but it works..

cool i´m looking forward to testing it
