Description Maciej Pilichowski 2007-07-06 09:41:12 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

When you go to the directory where ktorrent saves downloaded and downloading files there is no way (I don't see any) to see if the file A is downloaded or only partially downloaded. Maybe it is not the best method, but effective, and KDE users are used to it -- please add .part suffix to partially downloaded files. This way it is easy to see, that for file A downloading is in progress.

In other words mimic Konqueror file naming method.

First - sorry vor duplicate of this bugreport. havent found this one.
secound i want to ad my bugreport to this, because this one is from KDE3 and there are no nepomuk/strigi that

_______________________________________________________________________________
currently if you download anything via ktorrent, your indexer will be triggered
every secound (or every 5 secound with newer nepomuk). thats behavior is bad
because it takes much CPU load oder time.

Apps like chrome/chromium or the kde downloadstuff (rekonq, konqueror, kget)
set for not-fonished files the prefix *.part . files with this prefix will not
be indexed by nepomuk. wth this, it would be a good idea if ktorrent will do
the same or something else to get nepomuk away as long as the download isnt
finished

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
enable nepomuk/strigi indexing service
start ktorrent and download somethoing witch causes heavy load in nepomuk
(movies *.mkv for example)

Actual Results:  
nepomuk will gered everi 1-5secound and reindex this file, and you weak PC will
take much longer for the rest

Expected Results:  
not finished files should be not indexed as long as they are not finished

yeah without the .part extension nepomuk will reindex the torrentfile again and again
