Hyperlaunch - devlog 3

Hyperlaunch now has the fastest download time of any Minecraft launcher I have tested!
This is due to a number of optimisations done, mostly informed from app profiling (you can see a screenshot below.)
Network activity is also more steady, and should start less connections overall.

Hyperlaunch was slower because parts of the cache system & download system were reading and writing to a lot of files at once.
I used the PerfView profiler to figure out how I could improve the download time after testing Modrinth App and Pandora Launcher and scoring twice as worse against both.
I’ve attached a screenshot of PerfView below, but it’s very ugly to look at.

Changes:

  • Many syscall optimisations in the download handler & caching system
  • Download workers no longer wait for a file to be written to disk before starting another download
  • Started on Modrinth API client
  • Some bugfixes in client manifest parsing
