Before, the gradient transparent black overlay made text hard to read in some cases. Torrents without a poster image showed up in blue-gray and didn't look good.
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.
- Make State.save() always throttle calls -- since that's the common
case.
- Immediate saves are now the exception, with State.saveImmediate().
- The function is called State.save(), so the dispatch event should be
'stateSave'.
Detect the actual operating system CPU architecture. This is different
than `process.arch` which returns the architecture the binary was
compiled for.
This is just good info to have in the telemetry, but we're also sending
it in the update check so that eventually we can upgrade Windows 32-bit
apps to 64-bit, like Slack does.

Changes from our version:
- Added tests in Chrome/Firefox browsers.
- Use built-in TypeError (which is meant for bad arguments) instead of
custom IllegalArgumentError.
Previously, moving the mouse into the player window from the sides or
bottom would bring up the HUD, but moving the mouse in from the top
would not. With this commit, moving the mouse in from the top of the
window will also bring up the HUD.
Fixesfeross/webtorrent-desktop#241
Also clean up the Create Torrent page, delete some redundant CSS, prevent click-and-drag inside a TextField from moving the whole window, and make all label and input fonts a consistent 14px size.
