Soulseek General Discussion

Hi, My problem is, i install qt, add files, 240,000 of them. programs runs fine but my files arnt shared (cant be seen) by other people. allso when i add myself to the users list and try to look at my files the program crashes with the jit or somthing similer messege. old soulseek worked fine for me , and i was sharing over 300,000 files with that. any clues or suggestions ?
intel i7 860, overclocked to 3.36ghz
8gig ram overclocked.
windows 7 64bit,
Files are stored on Drobo Pro, 16terabytes of space, thru pcie gbe controller 1 Gbps.
all folders are under 1 folder , so i have added basically 1 folder, with 17 subfolders, with numerous folders under them! sharing all up 9.4 terabytes.

For very heavy use such as in your case, I definitely recommend you stick with the original client for now. There are optimization issues with SoulseekQt still that make sharing that large a number of files impractical. Although I'll admit I don't know exactly why your files aren't visible and why you get a client crash. I've come up with a very significant optimization to the speed of browsing shares that may or may not help your problem and will make it into the next build. Other than that this is something I definitely want to test for, but creating the proper testing environment is not trivial for me. So this won't happen very soon.

hmm ok, back to the old new-server version it is then. thanks for the prompt reply mate, much appreciated. pity there isn't a note on the old slsk site speaking of the qt version, i only came across qt by browsing Wikipedia of all things.

You're right, I should say something on the front page or download page. I'll do that soon.

Thanks, Nir
