Description

as discussed in #299 and #295, it may be preferrable to grab a complete copy of all torrent info at startup, and then only update fields that need updating as they change, based on recently-active torrent selector. This would make the UI more responsive and less dependent on just-in-time RPC transactions, at the expense of longer startup times.

note as well that RPC should get more responsive in 4.2+ with https://github.com/transmission/transmission/pull/7140

Research direction

Begin by tracing the startup torrent-loading path and the recently-active torrent selector/RPC flow described in the issue. Done means torrent information is cached at startup, subsequent changes update only affected fields, and the UI relies less on just-in-time RPC transactions.
