Has anyone used this? I haven't seen it recommended before in the typical arr stack and it seems like its infinitely more useful for those who are trying to easily maintain ratio on private trackers.

I was reading through the docs and it seems like for private trackers they are actively monitoring the IRC channel for announcements so you can grab new files within seconds of them being active where if I remember correctly my setup for RSS feed monitoring is only doing a new query every 5-10min if not longer.

That's correct. The fastest way to get into the swarm is irc announcements, faster than going on the site or RSS. For most places, it is best to do 10 minute RSS intervals so you don't get banned.

Really only applies to private trackers though, I can think of any publics that even have irc.

Very cool, I'll do some digging myself!
