Description

I am the developer of qBittorrent. It uses libtorrent-rasterbar which in turn uses Boost (mostly Asio). I recently made a new release. I compiled against Boost 1.56. However I got some complaints from users that the GUI freezes for 5-20secs frequently. All these users are using Windows 7. However I am using Windows XP and I am unable to reproduce. To make the long story short, I provided different test builds based on Boost.Asio and we pinpointed the commit that introduced the freezing problem.

Here is the relevant issue from our bug tracker: url removed Here is the offending commit: url removed

If you need any more info, I'll try to provide it.

Trac flags my url as spam. It tells me "To prove otherwise please provide a response to the following." but nothing is there for me to respond. Is it supposed to be there a captcha or something?
