Thanks to a 3rd party sponsoring development, and recent changes in my personal life, I've started actively developing rtorrent.

Some of the recent PR's merged include:

libtorrent

  1. Significant performance improvements to improve throughput and reduce CPU usage.
  2. A fix for a torrent client crash with the socket address object.
  3. Support for 33 gigabit speed throttles on ruTorrent.

rTorrent

  1. A fix for a torrent client stack overflow crash with the lockfile buffer.
  2. New trackers.delay_scrape command for .rtorrent.rc to avoid crashes with thousands of torrents and allow instant startups.
  3. A fix for compiling the software with LTO (Link Time Optimizations) for additional performance.
  4. A fix for a critical memory leak with RPC commands which may waste an alarming amount of memory.
  5. A fix for critical torrent client breakage if a power outage/failure occurs during a session saving interval.
