Given that the yt-dlp issue tracker will only accept issues accompanied with a verbose log from their own release builds, I'm afraid any issues experienced with my build cannot be discussed there. Also, any issues with my fork will mostly also happen with the upstream build. So, first search their issue tracker to see if someone has experienced something similar. If nothing is found, then perhaps ask right here? Or, like another forum member had done, PM me. He had an issue with some Polish site and I was able to reproduce it with the official yt-dlp build. Then I opened an issue there and it was solved.

Yes, I saw that. However, their new code snippet used in that commit didn't play well with Python 3.4.4... Maybe I can implement it like: def random_user_agent(): _USER_AGENT_TPL = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/%s Safari/537.36' _CHROME_VERSIONS = ( '132.0.0.0', '133.0.0.0', '134.0.0.0', '135.0.0.0', '136.0.0.0', '137.0.0.0', '138.0.0.0', ) return _USER_AGENT_TPL % random.choice(_CHROME_VERSIONS) 🤔

... And now yt-dlp have updated their random UA string to report Chrome 132-138: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/commit/c59ad2b066bbccd3cc4eed580842f961bce7dd4a#diff-b6d91e8afdfc47fb2b59e37d22d3621b79d252bc5a8205edc2b80530dcceecc2

We may be talking about different things here regarding PAE. Standard PAE is enabled on my machine, and always has been. Until recently though, I had not experimented with 'PAE patches' to extend the amount of RAM available on my 32-bit system. I do now have one of those available as an option on boot, and it is possible that my access to the 3TB disk will fail if I use that, if I go over 2TB on the disk. I haven't actually tried that, but certainly with the standard PAE configuration, I went over 2TB on my tests without any apparent problems.

Not enough expansion slots for separate network/sound/videoadapter, considering that a video card usually covers 2 slots if it is any good.

Yes, also on 8.0

Thanks but I already know that all. I was one of the first to be involved in testing that re-basing when @UCyborg suggested this method for Chrome360 after my observations in terms of its enormous RAM usage on my old Windows XP computer. The good is that Thorium is already well configured inherently when it comes to RAM consumption.

On my system, the 360Chrome 11.0.2031 worked really well. The version 13.5.1030 rebuild 7 worked relatively well but only when the chrome.dll was rebased. The site loading times were much worse than in version 11.0.2031. In contrast, Thorium doesn't need to be re-based by the user and consumes much less RAM than normal Chrome versions. The standard loading behaviour is an other history, unfortunately. However, this browser was never made for my old system, either. But as I already mentioned, I found a convenient way for me to let websites loading much faster. More about this soon!

Your results? I've tested this flag and NONE of the SEVERAL quantifiable measurements (ie, the only real way to truly eliminate Placebo Effect) shows any "considerable" performance difference. Sorry, you have to be a bit patient. I am testing so much and can't say anything qualified about one single flag. Too much flags here and too much other performance settings to identify the effects of a single flag.

Ok. Didn't notice that. Then it wasn't a request for normal DNS after all

Astral Plain. No, I'm faster!

Looks like so! I'm trying to outsmart you with speed. Coefficient of Purity or Purity Coefficient
