For the last few days I've been complaining about the slowness of freenet.
In that time I noticed Freenet slowing from a walk to a crawl through to
total dead stop.
Like, total dead stop - 1 hour or more to get CofE, if I could get it at
all. No hope with Snarfoo or the others.
I've noticed before that when my datastore starts to exceed 500-600MB, the
problems creep in.
At about 650 megs, my node becomes almost totally autistic, unable to
retrieve anything. To the point of not even answering FCP handshakes :(
This has happened for me on both linux and windows.
But after renaming my datastore directory and firing up the node again, I
found stuff coming in real fast.
(Hopefully, this won't happen in 0.4. Especially since I've set up a
dedicated linux server for a 0.4 node with about 20GB allocated to
datastore.)
So, the advice would be for everyone to use a bulk retrieval tool like
GetFiles or SuckSite and archive off as much as you can, then wipe your
datastore clean.
When 0.4 comes into full service, then all the stuff can be reinserted.
Cheers
David
