Version 0.85a - November 3rd 2016

over 7 years ago by Michael Tucker

Version 0.85a is now available!

📘

-NOVEMBER 10 2016- Option to "use number of cores" (system resources) under preferences has been changed to "number of threads" from version 0.86a+

While there were several bugs addressed, there is also a big feature I'm excited about: Parallel download processes.

Available only on x64 Windows installs right now, the program will make use of as many cores as you're willing to give it under the "Preferences -> Advanced" menu. Once you set the amount of cores, save it, close the program and reopen it.

This consumes a bit more RAM (went from about 100MB consumed on average to between 300-400MB consumed on average), but the downloads are a lot faster. X86 machines are still stuck on single thread downloading for the time being.
