The slot cap merged from master defaults to 2 uploads, and the CLI capped downloads at 5. Those are the numbers you pick when your own bandwidth is the scarce resource, but a Soulseek transfer is paced by the peer on the other end — usually a few hundred KiB/s — so what fills a modern link is many transfers at once, not faster ones. Upload slots go to 10, downloads to 20. The queue itself stays: privileged users being able to jump it is a condition of being a tolerated third-party client. serve_file also slept half a second after the last byte so the downloader could drain before the socket closed. With a cap that is time no other peer can use, and 64 uploads over 10 slots paid it six times over. A half-close says "that is the whole file" and TCP still delivers everything written before the FIN. Measured with 64 waiting peers: 2 slots 24.2s, 8 slots 6.2s, 32 slots 3.1s; at 10 slots the linger alone was 5.4s to 3.05s.
website
The soulseek-rs project site. Vite + React + TypeScript + Tailwind v4,
deployed to GitHub Pages by .github/workflows/pages.yml.
bun install
bun run dev # http://localhost:5173/soulseek-rs/
bun run build # client build, SSR build, then prerender
bun run typecheck
bun run lint
How the static site is produced
bun run build runs three steps:
vite build— the client bundle, plusdist/index.htmlas the template.vite build --ssr src/entry-server.tsx— the same app compiled for Node.bun scripts/prerender.ts— renders every route insrc/lib/routes.tsto its own file (dist/install/index.html, and so on) with that route's title and description substituted in, plus a404.html.
Without step 3 GitHub Pages has no file at /install and answers a direct link
with a 404. With it, every URL returns 200 with fully rendered markup, and the
client hydrates that markup rather than replacing it.
Adding a page means: a component in src/pages/, a <Route> in src/App.tsx,
and an entry in src/lib/routes.ts. The last one is what the prerenderer walks.
Design system
Tokens live in src/index.css, ported from the Claude Design project's
tokens/colors.css. They are the same values that back the TUI in
soulseek-rs/src/ui/styles.rs — change one, change both.
Dark is the native theme; light re-cuts the semantic hues roughly 10% darker,
because phosphor and tape are legible on vinyl but wash out on manila. Theme
selection is [data-theme] on <html>, defaulting to the OS setting, with an
inline script in index.html applying it before first paint so the page never
flashes the wrong background.
Notes
baseinvite.config.tsis/soulseek-rs/because this is a project site. Pointing a custom domain at it means setting that to/(the router readsimport.meta.env.BASE_URL, so it follows automatically).- Copy in
src/pages/follows the project's tone of voice: plainspoken, precise, honest about limits first. No copyrighted artist or album names anywhere, including the TUI demo data insrc/components/tui/data.ts.
