0000182: During launch, GUI flickers
As aMule is launching, the GUI has a lot of flicker. All the controls dim and undim repeatedly. I think it's happening once for each shared file that aMule encounters. Either that or once for each .part file it encounters. I also think this is slowing launch somewhat.
Set up an aMule environment with numerous files being shared.
Launch aMule, watching as it starts up.
Observe window. Notice that toolbar buttons and other GUI elements dim and undim repeatedly.
No tags attached.

Looking into it. Might explain a lot of things.

This is caused by the lines
#ifndef AMULE_DAEMON
  if ( !(count % 10) ) ::wxSafeYield();
#endif
in DownloadQueue.cpp: CDownloadQueue::Init

IIRC, they were added to avoid a long unresponsive start times, however they don't seem to accomplish this very well.

It should be fixed nowadays, since the yields arn't there anymore. Reopen if that isn't the case. ;)
