Hi Jeff, it sounds like you simulate the routing core, neighbour and
leafsets? based on  a virtual network topology? Anyhow, the biggest
problem/limit that I've had with other DHT simulators is the actual database
size and memory use coming from the storage modules. ie. each simulated node
had its own database. Moreover, because simulated node data are stored in
different files it feels like HDD seek latency goes up as well. Does free
pastry do anything to get around this sort of situation? what sort of node
population would be viable on 4GB machine ?

It depends what you want to do, for some tasks, I recall that it can run
at real-time with 100K nodes.  It's the memory that
ultimately leads to the limitation.

Let us know if you have more questions!
Thanks!
