Default multithreaded transfer

Hi

It would be GREAT if flashFXP could support multithreaded transfers. For example when transfering a large number of very small files, multithreaded transfering could speed up the process a LOT.

I realize you dont like to change the GUI, and I understand why, it has everything you need, and I would hate getting it destroyed by a new menu for multithreading. Thats why I have another suggestion:

Lets say you drag a folder to the FTP site with your right mouse button, flashFXP could then pop up a new menu with a few options, such as multithreaded transfers. If you select multithreaded transfer a small input box could show up and ask for the numer of prefered threads, or something like that.

The numbers of threads could then be controlled by a small textfield located somewhere near the queue.

These are just my suggestions, but it yould be really nice if you implemented multithreaded transfers, in some way

Due to design limitations multi-threaded transfers are simply not possible.

DYN_DaTa: I know, thats why one thread should be default.


bigstar: do you mean code design or interface design?


However, Im really happy with flashFXP, its one of the few products on the marked that havnt been destroyed due to lame developers, just look at ICQ *shudders*

Thanks for a great software
