Interestingly - some anonymous person gives the following advice, no
idea how much research went into it - but here goes:
1. First of all - your node has to be in 24/7 mode (not transient)
transient is the number one performance killer,
both for fast connecting and downloads with high rates
If you are using frost, and getting low rates or nothing, your node
is not transient or not correctly
setup with 24/7. Change to 24/7 and your node will run several
hundred percent better.
To do it right:
Click right the icon of freenet and select configure -> normal
settings
* Option 1 - static ip
if you have a static ip-adress simply select "Node will run 24/7"
and
add your ip in the field "Node Adress" - done!
* Option 2 - changing ip
if you have a changing ip (every redial or...), you need a dynamic
domainservice (free)
to get your node runin smooth. You can select a domain (free) like
"mynode.dyndns.org"
and update your ip to this domain automatically. All the other
nodes can find your node with the domain
instead of the ip-adress.
How it works:
a) Select your wanted domain like "mynode.dyndns.org at
www.dyndns.org for free
b) on the same site you find a little prog called "DeeEnEs" -
download an install it
c) Fill in the information received from Dyndns in the
Account-Feature from DeeEnEs
d) Rightclick the Icon DeeEnEs and select Properties and enable
"Start automatically"
your pc can be found under your selected domain - now select in
Freenet "Node will run 24/7" and
add your domain in the field "Node Adress" - done!
2. the Settings - for maximum speed
if 24/7 is done, start optimizing your settings:
Rightclick the icon Freenet and Select "Normal Settings"
a) Node Data Store: use minimum 4000, greater is better (6000),
9000 for optimal performance if you are frost user !
Rightclick the icon Freenet and Select "Advanced Settings"
b) Node Bandwidth: set all 3 values on 0
c) Performance Settings: set "Init Req HTL" on 10
Rightclick the icon Freenet and Select "Serious Geeks Only"
d) Announcements: set "Delay ms on 30000
e) rtMaxNodes: set 80
f) rtMaxRefs: set 80
3. Autostart - let your node run !!!
Routing tables are essential for good performance.
They are updated while your node runs online.
Even if it does not download anything, or it uploads anything.
From time to time it contacts other nodes and receives new routing
information.
It is very important to get actual routing data.
Put your Node in your Autostart, and let it run all the time !
It will not disturb you, even if your in a Hot Game - no lag!!
