Question: Confusion about image download delay in 20200101

[bnick23]

• Did you read FAQ section?

• Did you test with the latest releases or commit ?

Hello! Was running the latest release when I noticed the downloaddelay (which is set to 10) was happening not just for new downloads like it used to, but when checking the already downloaded ones as well, adding a lot of extra time. Is this a new intended change? I apologize if its mentioned somewere and I missed it.

Old previous 20191221 version downloaddelay = 10 example:

New 20200101 version downloaddelay = 10 example:

most likely due to #609, might be duplicated with #613.
replace the library.zip from https://github.com/Nandaka/PixivUtil2/releases/tag/v20200102-beta1

Tested with v20200102-beta1, issue still exists with #613 (comment)

try library.zip

Tried. But the issue still exists.
Using v20191221's DB and config, replaced v20200101‘s library.zip with the new one, doing "8. Download new illust from bookmarked members (/bookmark_new_illust.php)".

updated library.zip

updated library.zip

Tested again, issue still exists.

I use v20191221, not have this issue.

Tested again again with library.zip (SHA1: 5DDEE56DBEBCAED0406C24415DF12FB94F0436E8),
issue still exists using "8. Download new illust from bookmarked members (/bookmark_new_illust.php)".

Oh no...

do you enable alwaysCheckFileSize or overwrite?

do you enable alwaysCheckFileSize or overwrite?

Both of them are set to False.

I'll move my downloaded files to another folder several days after downloaded.
v20200101 with patch will only check files in the download folder, if file already downloaded but not in the folder, even if the history exists in DB file, it will still do the downloading.
v20191221 will check download history in DB first, if it is in DB history, it will skip the file, even if the file not exists.
I think that's the reason cause this DB issue.

Tested again again again with library.zip(SHA1: 0DF37F02BCB609E73D45DC2F7381F9DB10295E03) and v20200103-beta2, issue still exists.

After v20200101, it seems not check DB history first. I'll roll back to v20191221 without this issue.

Ensure alwayscheckfilesize and overwrite is set to False in config.ini, else it will have some delay enabled as it actually retrieve the image information from pixiv server.

Running mode 8.
Alwayscheckfilesize and overwrite are both set to False in config.ini, issue still exists when files already downloaded but not there.

Weird, I'm running from the source and it is working as intended..

Try the full release here? https://github.com/Nandaka/PixivUtil2/releases/tag/v20200103-beta2
