Hi,

Take a look at the following histograms.  It would seem that my ds is 
specialized in 2 and 5.  I am not currently getting requests for these
keys in anything other than a random distribution.  This was not the case
yesterday when my node had been up for several days with the same ip.

When does a node (not my node but those quering it) lose its info on
what it thinks my specization is?  Suspect that this happens if a node
is down for an hour or so and its IP changes.  If this is correct, 
connecting specialization info to the name (which is in freenet.conf) 
would make more sense - it also might be a good idea to cache the info 
on disk.

This could explain why after an IP address switch traffic is very 
much reduced for several hours.  If info on specialization is lost, it
would also tend to produce DNFs as we not using a directed search of
the key space.

Comments?
