About the memory leak, I don't understand why you say it's still leaking... I've made some tests using OmniObjectsMeter and nothing is leaking.. If you could help me to tell me what is leaking, that'd be cool..About your feature set, I don't understand what you mean by "rows data".. Please explain me..
Thanks

If you open Process Viewer under OSX and select the mlmac process and then the statistics tab, you can view the amount of RAM, both wired and virtual, that the application claims for itself. The mlmac process uses incrementally more RAM each passing second and never releases it. View this in contrast with the mlnet process which has fluctations in CPU useage but which never asks the OS for more memory space. If an application never releases claimed RAM then eventually the machine dips into more and more VM and eventually runs out of space; under OSX running out of drive space is a "bad" thing.As for the data displayed by the mldonkey daemon, nice things to have might be the rank or queu status of a connection, the nifty chunk graphic which shows which parts of a file one has, the time of the next and last attempt. Mldonkey probably gives out more data about a connection than is really useful but its all there and some of it is helpful.

I know how to view the RAM usage of an app, thanks.. But I thought I corrected the leak, since I've made some tests and it didn't leak.. Please could you tell me how exactly do have achieve to make it leak ? Contact me on my mail.. Thanks.About additional data to be displayed by mlMac, this is planned for 0.7.

its good to see pleasant responsivity from developers (lack thereof being the reason I quit using Acquisition and Liberty). How about the memory leak? Right now I use mlmac to launch searches but I quit it and leave the daemon running because otherwise I come back a few hours later to a frozen machine with a wildly spinning HD...the daemon runs fine by itself. One feature set which would be really nice is if mlmac made some use of the rows and rows of data that the mldonkey daemon produces about each connection and file.Reply to This
