I just created a torrent containing 19'000 files in 8'000 folders. When I click on it to select the torrent in the queue in qBittorrent it takes ~5 seconds. I think it's a bit too much for a good user experience.

My config isn't that bad (i7 860 with 6 GB RAM) so I guess it may be slower than that on a "regular" computer.

Could you please confirm that both qBittorrent and libtorrent are built in release mode?

Does the problem still occur if the lower (properties) panel is hidden?

I'm using the version 3.0.0 (final) under Windows 7 installed from the setup, so yes, it's a release. It's only freeze when the panel "Content" is shown, my torrent contains 1800 folder in the root, I guess it's a bit too much ;)

In my case I have 3.0 with Win 7 64 bit and only 3-4 torrents and I consistently see the freezing issue.

@Ummon could you post the torrent or link to it? I want to benchmark this and maybe fix it.

My machine amd ahtlon x2 4200+(dal core) Windows XP sp2 32bit.

3.0.9 takes ~6-7 seconds to highlight+load the torrent content
3.1.0alpha takes ~1 second to highlight+load the torrent content

You could try it yourself. Here is the latest build I offer on the forum: http://qbforums.shiki.hu/index.php?topic=1747.msg5861#msg5861
