i used iozs for some time now and really appreciate it.
one comment though:
recently i noticed when upgrading that you changed from .ini-file to regsettings.
that is imho a bad choice for several reasons
- cant see all settings at once (like in an editor)
- needs gui exe to configure (less flexible + extra step necessary)
- horrible to migrate from a set of settings in a text file
- worsens cross platform compatibility to linux etc.
- registry brings own additional problems (e.g. HKLM on Terminal server etc.)
- setup.exe needs permanent additional development with future versions
and most of all:
- performance increase might easier be accompished with e.g. preloading ini-settings into memory (or even into registry if you prefer, but no need to configure it there)
i hope that you turn back to ini file in the future
