Deluge Startup time

[roger_ramjet]

Hello,

Is there anyway to improve the startup time of Deluge?
Would/could something like Psyco (http://psyco.sourceforge.net/) help?

Sorry if this is a newb question.

I don't see the startup time for deluge being a problem.

As for whether a JIT-compiler would improve the startup time? I think you would find that the overhead of running the compiler would probably outweigh any speed improvements gained in starting up deluge.

Thanks for the reply.

Perhaps its just my work computer.
Python is still such new territory for me.

I should know the penalties from C# startup time.
I guess i wasn't really sure the penalty with Pyco Jit.

I guess i will try at home.

For me at least, it takes less than 2s to start up the GTK UI and starting up just the deamon is nearly instant.
I should mention that the very core of deluge, libtorrent, which does all the torrent handling is written in C++ not Python.

what exactly is your problem? does the window take a long time to draw itself? do the torrents get added too slowly? does it recheck every torrent on every startup?

Hello,

It was my work computer that was taking a while to start.
I got back to work and tried it again .. i guess it is not too bad.

It takes around 5 seconds to start. The time spent is at the "console" stage. I can see a black console window before it starts then it takes about a second to draw the window.

Its not really a problem.
