Every require() that we do before the users sees UI reduces startup
time.
I used the following code (added to index.js) to log every require()
call in the main process:
```js
var Module = require('module')
var required = {}
Module.prototype.require = function (orig) {
return function (id) {
if (!required[id]) {
required[id] = true
console.log(`${id} (from ${this.filename})`)
}
return orig.apply(this, arguments)
}
}(Module.prototype.require)
```
From this I was able to learn that lots of modules were being required
that aren't actually used until later.
I also sent this related PR to eliminate another few require()s:
https://github.com/LinusU/node-application-config/pull/4
This increases startup time by 50ms.
We'll probably realize much bigger gains by following this same
procedure for the renderer process.
* Open multi-file torrents as playlists
* Add `repeat` and `shuffle` options to the player
* Autoplay first file in torrent
* replaces `pickFileToPlay` feature
* when reopening player, restores the most recently viewed file
* Add playlist navigation buttons to Windows thumbar
* Remove `repeat` and `shuffle` options
This reverts commit 9284122461.
* Play files in order they appear in torrent
* Clean up playlists code
You can no longer open a whole stack of Prefs windows, or Create Torrent windows
Simplifies and fixes behavior when dropping files onto the app or the dock icon. Before, you could use drag-drop to create stacks of Create Torrent windows. Now, you can only create torrents from the home screen.
Fixes#665
Before, the app made itself the default torrent file handler automatically, pissing off some of our users. Now, it's not by default, and you can change it in the prefs.
