** At this point, I changed maximumThreads from the default (120?)
   to 200, and then restarted. **

I'd say that's a pretty dramatic change.  Is there any good guideline
for how high maximumThreads should be set?  Or is this something that
node operators are going to have to adjust themselves, using nothing
more than simple trial and error, to achieve the best results?

This is build 5021, on Linux 2.4.21 (non-NPTL), with Sun 1.4.1_03-b02.
I am limited by bandwidth, not CPU; this is running on an Athlon
XP 2000+ (1.67 GHz), but my ADSL has an upstream of 256kbps.  I've
got the Freenet outputBandwidthLimit set to 16000, but I might be
able to increase that a bit.  I'm also doing queueing on the router
(my OpenBSD box), with Freenet packets getting a priority just under
the default (but higher than giFT).
