My initial reaction was "hell no", but as I think more about how overloaded nodes are getting, I have to wonder if this might be necessary, to have longer timeouts than one minute when a node is overloaded for a long time. The reduction in traffic would also be good for really overloaded nodes, as my node is so overloaded it's having to refuse connections, it can't cope with the its percieved load.
I say "percieved load" because I wonder if there's some bug in the load counting. I had my computer unplugged from the internet for several hours and when I came back to it, my freenet node was still reporting about 2/5 of its capacity taken up. Now there's no reason for requests to stay around for that long if they can't go anywhere, so I have to wonder if there's some leak in threads or something that's decreasing nodes' capacity after a while. I can't debug this myself, but will gladly supply any information I can.
