Update 2014-01-10 - speed boosts, dev donation, and memory reduction January 11, 2014, 02:37:04 AM #18 Decent-ish update 2014-01-10: I've committed some new changes to the repository. Some are cosmetic, but three are important:



1) Memory use on the host side is reduced by about 500MB. This may or may not matter for you.



2) Speed is boosted by 10-20% on a lot of platforms. I have another speed boost patch coming next week once I've made it not horrible, but this one gets a decent chunk of the gains.



3) There's now a developer fee that goes to me. Kinda.



I'm doing an experiment with this code release in the developer fee: It's easy to disable. It's not hidden. But it's also just a list of addresses that share the dev fee equally.



So here's my proposal: If you port this software to another platform or release a binary, don't remove my address. Instead, add yours to the list -- I've tried to make it super easy for you to get your own share. If this works out, I'll continue to release improvements and try to make it even easier for other developers who improve upon the code, because we'll all have a reason to make software that remains open source and which is user-friendly and high performance.



If you think this is horrible, let me know and let's try to find a way to make it work better.



If you're a user who hates the idea of a dev fee, the source is yours and you can delete the addresses listed there and/or add your own.
