Compressed Transfers Column in Search Window
Cyborg was complaining about the fact that many users don't have safe and compressed transfers enabled in this thread. It would be nice if there was a column in the search window that let you know if safe and compressed transfers is enabled on the machines that the search returns so you can utlilize...

This is not a feature that I would find particularly beneficial, but I can definately see how it would be beneficial to others.

With the new system, the client downloads filelists for the autosearch feature. During that process, an upload speed for that user is established. The faster uploaders could have a higher priority...and the slower ones, well, you know. The problem with this is that some filelists are so small that t...

Search Hit Counter
I would enjoy a search hit counter. Would this be difficult to implement?
I searched the boards with no results. If it's a dupe, please moderate accordingly.
Any thoughts?

Gargoyle, I understand that the changes were implemented to decrease the number of filelist downloads. But, what I'm saying is that it shouldn't be at the expense of finding alternate sources. My idea of a solution to the existing problem would be this: If we are concerned with the number of filelis...

If matching someone's list against your queue results in more sources, that will translate into less auto-searches, which is definitely a win for the hub.

But, what good is a single source that is an alternate for, say 10 files? Well, I guess it depends how large those files are. But, if we are talking >100MB, then that sin...

Possibly think of a way to implement it so that it could not be abused and maybe be included in a future release. Is this really possible?
