  1. Adding favorite users

    Hello, Is it possible to add users to favorites only by their nickname? For example: I usually leave my computer on while I'm not at home. When I get home, I check who uploaded from me and what. I notice someone that I am curious to know more about. But by the time I reached home, the user was offline, and so I can't favorite him/her. I'd want something to notify me when he/she's online again. What do you think?
  2. CPU Usage

    I recently had started using StrongDC++, but I was having problems, so I switched to Apex(Beta4)... only to find those problems again. It uses 60-80% of my CPU at almost all times and the overall usage of the CPU is fluctuating from 20-30% to 70-80-90% all the time I'm using it: I'm using Windows XP service pack 2 and I have AMD Duron 1800 as processor. I observed that it does this only when I'm connected to big hubs (2000+ users). As you can see in the screenshot , there are 6 uploads running (but I tested it with fewer too), there is no hashing (I checked), I was connected only to 4 big hubs, and the CPU usage was 84%. And if I exit those hubs the resource usage is much smaller, although I'm still uploading. So I'm pretty sure it has something to do with connecting to big hubs. Maybe I get many search inquiries from many users, and since I share many files (10,000+), it uses much CPU to get through them? Or maybe, by updating all the hub's information in real time, and since there are many users there, it uses a lot of CPU? I don't really know, and I hope you advanced users and developers out there can help me with this one, or I think it's changing back to the good ol' simple DC++ for me...
