Disk cache & Disk cache expiry interval options removed @v4.4.0?

Post by pks1217 »

I've encountered an embarrassing thing.
After updating v4.4.0, the 2 following libtorrent-specific options below have gone on the "Advanced" option UI in the preferences pop-up.

Disk cache
Disk cache expiry interval

Is it right?
And is it change of basic policy from v4.4.0?

Any comment on the problem above does NOT reads in the changelog of v4.4.0.

Hi,

These options are deprecated in Libtorrent 2.X. In short QBT doesn't use cache on it's own with the new libtorrent version but relies on OS cache, smarter way to day it (tell us :D )

cache_size

The cache_size setting is no longer used. The caching of disk I/O is handled by the operating system.
