[freenet-support] Odd failure(?) mode, and updating.
You may remember me as the one who had problems with fproxy that proved to be brain-dead IE defaults. Turns out fproxy and my node are working fine, and the node gets around 1 request a second suggesting it's integrating way better than the freesite of evil keeps bitching about. :) Reachability of stuff browsed through the interface seems to improve as it gels into the network. Then this AM there was an incident, which happened to catch me in front of the keyboard. It was hard not to notice, since the whole system became largely unresponsive. For whatever reason, my node had spawned over 5000 new threads in a matter of seconds and bloated to take up much more RAM and most of the CPU, forcing me to restart the service from the tray menu. Hopefully enough is cached between sessions that this won't seriously compromise the node's integration. I have a number of new questions, none of which the FAQ will answer. 1. What caused this? I've heard of some versions grabbing a lot of system resources when inserting certain kinds of keys locally through FCP, but not spontaneously or as a result of requests. Can it happen when some kinds of keys are inserted by just propagating to your node? Was it trying to upload and store a large file, maybe one that came in 5000 asynchronous fragments? Pathological behavior that cripples the host system until the node is restarted manually, possibly then hurting the network by interrupting what would have been an important task for others or by setting back the integration clock on your node is, IMO, bad. Thread, CPU, and memory use may need to be throttleable as bandwidth currently is. (The same applies double to the gnutella client I run, though, which frequently bloats up to 2000 threads and uses way more ram than the freenet node under normal circumstances -- i.e. normal for the node AND the gnutella client. :)) 2. Is this already addressed by the update? 3. How do you install the update, short of opening Explorer and painstakingly navigating your way to the Freenet install directory under Program Files to run the updater? Update is a logical item for the tray menu on Win32, but it's not there; failing that it's a logical button for the configure tool's main tab, but it's not there either. [While on the subject, the configure tool needs a cooler name and a cross-platform rather than MFC implementation. I suggest a lightweight C++/GTK app and a name of FreeConfigurator. :)] 4. My machine seems to get a new IP address every so often, automagically, and not just after a reboot. How well will the node handle that?: a. Will it start screwing up if the IP changes mid-session and have to be manually restarted? How to detect this or better yet, automate it? Short of restarting it on a fixed schedule, which would probably be bad. Or will it discover the new ip for itself? Perhaps as long as it works OK without uncommenting and changing the ipAddress line in freenet.ini it will cope automatically? b. How bad an effect on the network will the dynamic IP have, especially if it requires periodic node restarts beyond the usual Windows had a cerebral embolism in its atrophied and still largely 16-bit brain; time to reboot again, sigh situations? I'd rather avoid the dyndns.org service that I was shocked to find pimped in a comment in the configuration file. Shocked, because of this from its Click-through Terms of Service Of The Week(tm by Microsoft who pioneered the practise): The Member will not use the Service for illegal software, junk pornography, spamming or any use of distribution lists to any person who has not given specific permission to be included in such a process. The Member agrees not to transmit through the service any unlawful, harassing, libelous, abusive, threatening, harmful, vulgar, obscene or otherwise objectionable material of any kind or nature...The Member further agrees not to transmit any material that encourages conduct that could constitute a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability or otherwise violate any applicable local, state, national, or international law or regulation. This seems implacably hostile to using dyndns to point to a freenet node! By its nature a freenet node makes it difficult but not impossible for its operator to know what is being transmitted through the service, and impossible for the operator to control it. Of course, it's hard to prove that junk pornography (and just how in the hell is that defined, and why does dyndns take it upon itself to dictate sexual mores like it was some 19th century church?) and so on is really in your store, but the node operator is put in an uncomfortable position. If they truly honor the above agreement rather than ignoring it, they must use all means at their disposal to at least try to determine and control what flows through their node and resides in it!

[freenet-support] Which JRE is recommended for Win2k

[freenet-support] Specialisation with stable was Re: Marked specialisation with 6441
In stable I can't see any specialisation. My node is running since 04/2003 with a DS size of 4GB (no DS wipe) and this is the current Histogram of keys in the DS: Histogram of keys in in fred's data store These are the keys to the data in your node's local cache (DataStore) 16.01.2004 22:53:38 keys: 11993 scale factor: 0.07872078567743301 (This is used to keep lines 64 characters) 0 |= 1 |=== 2 |=== 3 |= 4 |== 5 | 6 |= 7 |= 8 |=== 9 | a |== b |=== c |== d |=== e |=== f |=== peaks (count/mean) 1 -- (1.0019178) 6 -- (0.9819061) a -- (1.0632869) d -- (1.0819645) f -- (1.0846328) Doesn't look like it did specialize somehow. ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support

I think anyone who regularly browses Freenet is going to destroy their node's specialisation. Not really a big problem since it means popular content is available from more places in the network. Also, recent changes (in 5061) to send requests to all the nodes we know about, means the data you've cached will be useful to others. -Kevin On Fri, 2004-01-16 at 21:58, Someone wrote: In stable I can't see any specialisation.

[freenet-support] DFI being inserted late today -- sorry!
I upgraded my Sun JDK today via FreeBSD's ports collection. Building the entire beast from source. Took longer than expected. I probably should have just killed everything else instead of letting fred and other stuff run as usual the whole time. Anyway, it's finally done, fred was just restarted, and once it settles down from its startup shakedown, I'll be inserting DFI. Just wanted to let everyone know, so you wouldn't be suspecting bad routing or whatever. :-) -- Conrad Sabatier [EMAIL PROTECTED] - In Unix veritas ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support
