Obviously not. Sending both requests and inserts to any random node in the datastore will not cause it to work. Not sending both requests and inserts anywhere will not work either. And nor will sending them to the node to which you have the fastest connection. It is a lot more complicated than that (I'm not even sure have got it as it is). > > > Michael > > _______________________________________________ > Freenet-dev mailing list > Freenet-dev at lists.sourceforge.net > http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/freenet-dev > -- \oskar _______________________________________________ Freenet-dev mailing list Freenet-dev at lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/freenet-dev
