Important and Good Feature requests

[martin@rootjazz]

All good suggestions. Will try and nail some off for you this week.

Regarding the 40 thread limit. Just cranking up the threads does not necessarily increase speed. Your processor can only handle the number of threads as to how many cores you have. So dual core means can process 2 threads at once. quad core = 4. By increasing the threads you need to move these threads in and out of the processor. As the threads are not always busy u pto a point increasing threads increases throughput. But you will eventually meet diminishing returns, whereby you are spending so much time moving all threads in and out of the processor, the actually time to process is increases due to this.

Hence I reckon, having a 100 threads, isn't necessarily as quick as having 40 threads or perhaps less.

Hi,


Have had a few misfortunes this week and am behind on my work load. I just realised today is Thursday and not Tuesday, so might have to wait a bit for those promised features.

[martin@rootjazz]

As I said I would, I will try and do some this week. My internet is down at the moment, so am currently having to come to town to keep on top of emails / support.

If I have said something, do feel free to chase me up as I have such a high work load, things get forgotten, put to the side etc. Unforunate, but true.

Threads were not increased as there is really no point. As mentioned before

But if you must, next time I am in the mixcloudfunked source code, I will crank it up for you

100 threads is very excessive. Please think about slowing things down to a realistic pace. If you abuse the system like that they will just work that much harder to shut us down. Just look at the current situation with plays not working. MixCloud did that on purpose to shut us down.

Think about what you are doing.
