Bundles four findings from a stability audit plus the missing-log bug
the user reported.
1. main.js _flushUploadLog: ENOENT after the log file's directory got
deleted mid-session was swallowed; the buffer was cleared before
appendFile so entries were silently lost and the cached target kept
pointing at the dead path. Now: mkdirSync(recursive) before every
flush idempotently recreates a missing dir; on any append error we
invalidate the cache, prepend the chunk back to the buffer and
schedule a retry. Survives "user dragged the log folder into the
trash and didn't notice".
2. renderer/app.js queueJobs auto-prune: with the default
removeFromQueueOnDone=false the queue grew forever. Past ~5000
entries every render became O(N) on a perpetually-growing N and
the user saw progressive scroll/tab lag. Cap the in-queue
terminal jobs (done/skipped/error/aborted) at 500 most-recent on
each batch-done; oldest get pruned with their index entries.
3. sortQueueJobs dynamic-key throttle: status/speed/progress/size
sorts ran a full O(N log N) sort on every progress tick. Added a
200ms-window cache for the dynamic-key path so the sort is reused
within the same UI_UPDATE_INTERVAL — invisibly small reorder lag,
massive cost savings at 5000+ jobs.
4. renderHistoryTable delegated listeners: every Verlauf-tab switch
was binding one click listener per row (5000 listeners on a
long-history user) and rebuilding the entire <tbody> innerHTML.
Single delegated tbody listener covers both row-click (copy link)
and th-click (sort), bound once per container via dataset flag.
5. sessionFilesData (recent-files panel) cap at 2000 entries with
matching _sessionFileKeys cleanup using the existing separator.
Stops the lower-panel innerHTML write from inflating to multiple
MB on long sessions.
87/87 tests still green.
Three small, unrelated reliability improvements bundled:
1. lib/hosters.js (_resolveByseUploadByName): drop the "only one new
file → claim it" fallback. Under parallel byse uploads, job A's
poller could claim job B's newly-uploaded file and return the wrong
URL. Now requires exact normalized name match. Trade-off: a few
false negatives if byse rewrites the filename beyond our
normalizer, but parallel correctness wins.
2. tests/upload-manager.test.js: pin the transient-network classifier
behaviour with 2 new tests covering common transient strings
(ENOTFOUND, ECONNRESET, socket hang up, fetch failed, EAI_AGAIN…)
and verifying real account-level / file-rejected errors are NOT
misclassified as transient. Baseline stays clean: 82/82 green.
3. main.js: log process.memoryUsage() snapshot at batch-start and
batch-done. One line each — harmless in the happy path, gives us
the data points needed to spot long-session RSS/heap growth across
batches without DevTools instrumentation.
At 500+ queued jobs these lines bloated upload-debug.log with
megabyte-sized entries per batch-start and added visible latency to
the IPC handler. Log sizes only.
Three related gaps closed so one full byse account stops wasting
attempts on every subsequent job and later-added accounts get picked
up without an app restart.
1. Pre-job-swap moved BEHIND the semaphore acquire. At scale (500 jobs
/ 1 slot) every worker was checking _failedAccounts at spawn time
before the first upload had even tried — so none of them saw the
failed state. Now each worker re-checks right before its first
upload attempt.
2. save-config IPC handler re-resolves fallbacks for any account that
is already in _failedAccounts but has no override set. Previously
account-failed only fired once per account, so a config change
after the first mark-failed was silently ignored and the batch
stayed stuck on the dead account until the app restarted.
3. UploadManager exposes getFailedAccountKeys() and getOverride(hoster)
so main.js can drive the late re-resolve without poking private
fields.
4 new tests: pre-job-swap after semaphore, getters contract, fresh
manager resets learned state, late-added fallback is honored by
subsequent jobs. 80/80 green.
Byse rejects uploads with status like "not enough disk space on your
account" when the account's storage is exhausted. The parser was
flagging every non-OK status as err.fileRejected=true, and the upload-
manager classifier additionally matched the generic "lehnte Datei ab"
prefix as file-rejected. Result: rotation was skipped on a full account
and every subsequent file failed on the same dead account.
- hosters.js: byse parser now distinguishes account-level phrases
(disk space / storage / quota / insufficient / account full) and sets
err.accountError=true for those. File-specific failures (Duplicate,
wrong format, size) keep err.fileRejected=true.
- upload-manager.js: _isFileRejectedError no longer matches the generic
"lehnte Datei ab" prefix and short-circuits when err.accountError is
true. _shouldSkipRetryOnAccountError honors the flag and has added
regex patterns as a safety net.
- Tests: 5 new unit tests covering disk-space/account-level/duplicate
and the accountError-wins-over-fileRejected precedence.
retrySelectedJobs() was calling renderQueueTable + updateQueueActionButtons
+ updateStatusBar and then immediately awaiting startSelectedUpload(),
which runs the exact same trio right after. At 500+ failed jobs the
double render/sort/button-refresh freezes the UI for several seconds
after clicking "Erneut versuchen".
Drop the outer render trio — startSelectedUpload's one is enough. The
inner call sees the freshly-mutated job state in the same tick, so the
visible result is identical with half the work.
