Some Chinese feedback: Main point is there are a lot of old PCs with very limited RAM, although new ones have plenty of RAM. Broadband is however reasonable in general, making it a better candidate than Iran. Suggested making startup on startup configurable, substantially reducing memory footprint etc. My worry with the former is that opennet won't last forever, and low-uptime darknet is very problematic.
IMHO we could reasonably cut our default memory limit to 128M. The main issues are: - Sorting out Library memory issues (bug #3685) - Sorting out Freetalk memory issues (I haven't seen OOMs from Freetalk recently, maybe this really is fixed?) - Sorting out - or ignoring - the startup memory spike on big inserts (4G needs 192MB). On fast systems, a higher memory limit means less CPU spent in garbage collection, so maybe there is an argument for reinstating the panel in the wizard that asks the user how much memory to allocate... Our friend has also localised the wininstaller (this is subject to technical issues Zero3 hopefully will be able to resolve), and jSite (I will deal with this soon).
