This may be the conventional wisdom, but I have my doubts. It took a while for me to get 5036 from sourceforge but now that I am up and running I am ready for my next experiment. I have reduced the datastore to 200M and we will see if my node continues to transfer 1 Gig per day. If these high transfer rates persist, I will begin to question why an open connection is so chatty. Has anyone collected any metrics to document the normal churn rate for a datastore? > > From: Edgar Friendly <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Why close connections?
