Yes, I agree. However I am concerned that I am not even seeing signs of recovery 48 hours later.

I would hope it doesn't take that long. Does that mean a new node in the network will take weeks to develop a specialization also? > Note that just because you have your DS with lots of 'A's in it does not mean > your node is specialized on 'A'.

And this is why I look at incoming requests. My node could not specialize in a keyspace but instead specialize on routing that keyspace through other nodes which would be fine. But even in that case I would see the specialization in my incoming request histogram. -- Tracy Reed http://copilotconsulting.com
