I don't think the bloom filter settings have any impact on server-side load ... a node still has to check every transaction against the filter regardless of how that filter is configured, which means the same amount of disk io and processing. How can you reduce load on a peer by negotiating different filter settings? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
