Changelog; Read more

Deluge 1.0.2 (10 October 2008)
Core:
* Fix issue where torrents will not be properly added to the session

Deluge 1.0.1 (10 October 2008)
Core:
* Change the default max global upload slots to 4 instead of -1 since libtorrent
will automatically open more slots to meet the upload speed limit.
* Fix display of tracker error messages
* Fix add_torrent_url() to download the torrent file in a thread to prevent
the main thread from blocking and causing the daemon to freeze.
* Removed the ‘Maximum Connections Per Second’ setting and replaced it with a
default setting of 20. This should alleviate speed issues some are experiencing.
* Changed max half-open connections default limit to 8 on XP/2000 and 4 on Vista
* Prevent being able to set file priorities for compactly allocated torrents as
it is not intended to work.
* Fix freezing on start-up issues on systems that do not have a properly
configured localhost entry.
* Change max connections default setting to 200
* Fix issue with invalid bencoding from some trackers
* Plenty of libtorrent updates that should improve core stability

GtkUI:
* Improve performance of files tab by only updating when values change

Misc:
* Fix #187 set a 5 second timer to save the config file after a config value
has been changed.
* Fix #503 change the boost lib detection logic to first look for -mt and
if not available, fall back to regular boost lib (non-multithreaded)

WebUI:
* Add enable “Auto Add” checkbox

How do you name your computers?

Thought it would be interesting to find out how people name their computers. I’ve always used names as they help me identify servers easier.

My computers;

1. My Linux Notebook is “Pandora”. Weapon of mass destruction.

2. My ipCOP server is now “angel”. It used to be “vagina”, not the best name when you stay with your family.

3. My Linux Desktop is named “bespin”.

4. My file/web server goes by “nosebleed” because some content on it will give you a nosebleed.

5. My WinXP desktop goes by “junk”. Need I say more?

6. My office notebook goes by abubu. I have not idea why I chose that name.

So tell me, how to you name your computers?
