Hello all,
I think the decision to make Monsoon the default bittorrent client for 11.0 might have been a little rushed.
Several people tested it and this issue did not come up.
True, it looks nice; true, its developer is very forthcoming.
But it seems far from really usable:
- It hogs memory like nobody's business: ATM I'm downloading the openSUSE beta 2 DVD with it and it uses 54,3 MBs RAM and 414.8(!) MBs of SWAP; CPU usage averages around 25%. This is far, far above what Transmission uses!
Please file a bugreport against GNOME.
- Once running, it won't accept torrent-files via Firefox. You have to download the torrent-file and add it to the queue manually!
Please file a bugreport against GNOME.
IMHO those two are showstoppers for Monsoon in 11.0. After they've been fixed, I wouldn't mind using Monsoon, but can this be done reliably until the release date for 11.0 final?
It wont be fixed unless it's known so please file it in bugzilla so that it can be looked at.
Please let's simply get back to the working solution, i.e. Transmission and wait till Monsoon has matured.
AFAIK, there was no previous solution. We didn't have a default bittorrent client before.
Greets, Chris
