dns issues

[robzane]

I use Fedora 9 and I have dns problems and slow speed connection with Deluge.
Using Transmission and the same bandwith settings no problems.

I think this might have to do with how we are resolving countries for peers. I just made a commit that includes a db of country ips so that deluge will no longer look them up through dns. Hopefully this will fix problems some people are experiencing.

I'm testing the svn version, the geoip update gave a great speed boost to the peers tab display, Deluge used to use lots of CPU whenever I switched to the Peers tab.
So thank you for this update

I don't know if this has been fixed. But this would well fit in my problem case. My problem is that DNS gets darn slow when using deluge. Yep, network connection isn't swamped. But dns lookups take several seconds or even time out. I think this might be due ISP restricting flooding and DOSing DNS service. I might be completely wrong with this. But that might be the case. All open sessions and sites which are in dns cache work perfectly. Only new lookups last forever.

Or then there is some network interface / deluge related problem. Which I'm unable to locate.

We use a db file instead of doing DNS queries for peer countries. Deluge shouldn't be sending out many DNS queries, and certainly not more than the average web browser.
