Improved Torrent searching, u/l & d/l soon

Posted: Tue Oct 14, 2003 3:12 am

The torrent indexer and search interface has been updated. The number of sites and torrents indexed now approaches 30 sites and 8000 torrent hashes, and search accuracy has been improved.

The Releases system will also soon add the ability to individually upload torrent files to associated releases, which will be publicly available for download. A moderation system will later be added along the way, and it will be a "karma" based system (all members can vote up / down a torrent and the poster who posted it). I haven't decided on the tracker... if it slows the site too much, either isoHunt will use some other public trackers, or I'll have to buy a new server for it.

If you haven't upgraded to the new BT 3.3 client yet, you should. It takes less cpu and ram and has more efficient d/l. I recommend TheSHAD0W's experimental version .

That's all for now. And as you can imagine, all these cost money and the Google ads aren't doing so well lately. If you can, throw me a few bucks with the Paypal link found on the Readme page to help offset the $120 / month hosting bill. Thanks in advanced Wink
