v3.8.4-beta.1 — Reduce Resource Usage During Large Downloads

latest release: v3.8.4-beta.2
pre-release13 hours ago

What's Changed

This beta addresses high system resource consumption reported when downloading large files on Windows 11 (#255), caused by excessive disk I/O from file pre-allocation and log noise from third-party network libraries.

🛠 Improvements

  • Eliminate file pre-allocation overhead — Changed the default file-allocation strategy from trunc to none across all platforms, removing the synchronous ftruncate() I/O burst that caused system-wide lag on Windows NTFS during large file downloads
  • Suppress network library log noise — Added log-level filters for hyper_util and reqwest crates (raised to Warn), eliminating 98% of diagnostic log volume that was causing unnecessary disk I/O when debug logging was enabled
