Tixati 2.58 is out

Tixati is a free and easy to use BitTorrent client featuring detailed views of all seed, peer, and file transfer properties. Also included are powerful bandwidth charting and throttling capabilities, and a full DHT implementation. Tixati is one of the most advanced and flexible BitTorrent clients available. And unlike many other clients, Tixati contains NO SPYWARE, NO ADS, and NO GIMMICKS.

Tixati portable version is meant to run on a USB flash drive or other portable media. It stores all its configuration files in the same folder as the executable binary files, and all file paths are stored in a format relative to the program executable folder.

It is important you do not delete the "tixati_portable_mode.txt" file within the executables folder. This file is what triggers Tixati to run in portable mode. (The executable binaries are actually the same as the standard edition binaries.)

When running the portable edition from a USB flash drive, especially one that is formatted in FAT16/FAT32, you may experience some lag when initially loading a new transfer. This is because initializing and allocating large files on flash-based media consumes a greater amount of time and resources compared to a conventional hard-drive.

Tixati has the following features:

detailed views of all aspects of the swarm, including peers, pieces, files, and trackers
support for magnet links, so no need to download .torrent files if a simple magnet-link is available
super-efficient peer choking/unchoking algorithms ensure the fastest downloads
peer connection encryption for added security
full DHT (Distributed Hash Table) implementation for trackerless torrents, including detailed message traffic graphs and customizable event logging
advanced bandwidth charting of overall traffic and per-transfer traffic, with separate classification of protocol and file bytes, and with separate classification of outbound traffic for trading and seeding
highly flexible bandwidth throttling, including trading/seeding proportion adjustment and adjustable priority for individual transfers and peers
bitfield graphs that show the completeness of all downloaded files, what pieces other peers have available, and the health of the overall swarm
customizable event logging for each download, and individual event logs for all peers within the swarm
expert local file management functions which allow you to move files to a different partition even while downloading is still in progress
100% compatible with the BitTorrent protocol
Windows and Linux-GTK native versions available

Tixati 2.58 changelog:

download piece handling, caching, and hashing completely re-engineered
long-running incomplete pieces are cached on-disk, giving drastic RAM reduction with many downloads
all pieces are cached in separate files, within per-transfer folders
initial full loading from piece cache upon program start has been eliminated, greatly improving load times
final incomplete piece saving has been greatly simplified, which has improved final shutdown time
much more efficient scattered hashing of multi-source pieces, can now handle thousands of source peers per piece
piece repair algorithm thoroughly searches all multi-source permutations in the most efficient order
throttled, multi-threaded piece repair hashing for stability in torrents under heavy attack
peer piece assignment algorithm has been greatly improved and now prioritizes repair of long-running pieces
fixed rare crash originating in UPNP port-mapping client when receiving unexpected responses from router
new diagnostic charts in help menu that show memory allocation rate and level
all diagnostic charts now have full range of separate detail charts for all 15 sub-categories
added workarounds to deal with remote clients that continuously reply to block requests with lt_donthave messages
numerous fixes to tree/list view controls throughout the program, including faster text rendering
fixed display defects relating to progress-bar controls within tree/list view on some GTK themes
global disk operation queuing engine has had several improvements to it's task prioritization algorithms
file/folder names are now correctly incremented when creating duplicate files
better support for control label pass-through when working with 3rd-party screen-readers
support for clickable fopnu: links in channels, share profiles, and private messages
magnet/dsc links with invalid characters in the title field are handled more gracefully
fixed display problems with font-fallback when rendering text via Windows Uniscribe (channels/share/messages)
fixed font-fallback installed font enumeration problems, improved registry reader for better compatibility
text views now show correct disabled background color when embedded in a tab
lines in text views are now clipped to prevent aggressive unicode diacritic stacking from bleeding upward
fixed problems with numeric spin-box notification mechanism that would prevent update upon Settings window close
peer event logging has had many readability fixes
more efficient directory change notification monitor used for optionally watching folders for .torrent files
several other minor GUI fixes
updated IP-Location tables
