As I said, they don't use much bandwidth. If the node isn't there at all, it's a packet of a few hundred bytes every 20-30 seconds per node. Which means 15 disconnected peers use around one such small packet per 1-2 seconds. It's not a big deal IMHO. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
