Start UI before loading torrents #12914
Comments
@nokti can you change your |
Did you add any of those torrents with skip hash check? |
I did and this morning it took qBit even longer to start up (about 5 minutes). I also have 20 more torrents since yesterday (total is now at 3,300). My experience is that the more torrents I add, the longer qBit takes to start up. To be fair I had the same problem with µTorrent 2.2.1
No, I never do that. edit: To give more info about my set up: qBit is installed on my main disk (C:) but the destination folder (default save path) is on a second disk (D:). Both disks are inside the tower plugged to the MB with regular SATA cables. |
You went from between 4-5 mins to about 5mins, how exactly is that longer?? In any case, it seems like you may be experiencing something similar to #12825 as the users there have alot of torrents too (7,000+) but at least your situation differs in the fact that your drive is in the same machine & not an attached array or nas device on a network.
@FranciscoPombal thoughts? |
Well I used a stopwatch to compare (because it was on my desk after running). But here's what the log says: yesterday (4:11): today (5:06): |
Well - that's more definitive. thank you. Also, what is your disk cache set to? Can you try this build below: Windows test build of 4.2.5 with listed libraries:
|
4.2.5 has some RAM leak issues. But 4.2.2 has even worse issues. You should always use latest version when posting issues. As it’s hard to diagnose an issue which maybe non existent in latest version. |
Auto. With expiry interval 60s and OS cache checked.
Ok, will do a backup first, just in case... |
Debugging symbols. Useful for stacktraces in case of a crash. Did your regular installation not come with it? It should have. |
Another reason to update to 4.2.5!!!! ref: #12336 (comment)
this is essentially a debug file, it contains symbols etc to help developers debug issues.
qBittorrent needs it, yes. If you look where you have qBittorrent installed you will actually see these two files (you can make a copy of them & put them elsewhere for safe keeping if you like, another folder on desktop etc & just drop in the two files to your installed folder from my build in their place) |
You're right of course. Although in this case the slow startup was also present with v4.2.5 (and previous versions). |
Here's the timings from the log with the above build: 1/ I exited v4.2.2, replaced the files with the new build, and restarted qBit: 2020-05-26T 16:34:33 - qBittorrent v4.2.5 started 2/ I exited v4.2.5, restarted my computer, then started v4.2.5: 2020-05-26T 16:53:28 - qBittorrent v4.2.5 started Restarting the application was faster (2:33) than launching it after a system restart (4:48). v4.2.5 also took between 2-3 mn to exit, against a couple of seconds for v4.2.2 |
Can you set disk cache to 128 MiB and check if your high RAM usage issue is solved? |
Auto cache settings should either have a upper limit or qbt shouldn’t be using it as default. |
Well like I explained somewhere else my problem is not so much that qBit uses a lot of RAM but that it doesn't seem to be flushed periodically. Right now it is idle and using 650 MB... This is probably unnecessary. I've been using this app to clean unused memory, it works really well: https://www.henrypp.org/product/memreduct edit: more timings from this morning's start up: 2020-05-27T 08:47:51 - qBittorrent v4.2.5 started 3:56, so that's inbetween yesterday's timings. 3 to 4 minutes seems to be the time necessary to load all the torrents. That's a minute faster than with v4.2.2 so I'll stick with this build. |
If I can add some more info that may help resolve this issue:
|
I can confirm I had this very same issue with 4.2.5 and following these instructions seems to have fixed it |
This is either a matter of |
qBittorrent version and Operating System
qBit 4.2.2 / Windows x64 (i7 3.60 GHz / 16 GB RAM)
What is the problem
I currently have over 3,000 torrents in qBit and when I start it I get a blank screen for several minutes (between 4-5 minutes):
What is the expected behavior
It would be nice if the UI would start first, then loads the torrents. Atm it just looks like qBit has crashed when it is actually loading all the torrents. The bittorrent client BiglyBT has an option to start the UI before the core initialization for example. That is really neat.
Steps to reproduce
Start any of the recent versions of qBit 4.2.x with hundreds of torrents.
Extra info(if any)
I downgraded from v4.2.5 because of the high ram usage and also because v4.2.5 takes forever to exit (whilst v4.2.2 only takes a couple of seconds).
