[freenet-support] Interesting observations regarding performance
Hi all, I think some will find this interesting. I've run Freenet on a Duron 900 with 512Mb ram, Windows 2000, for quite some time. The javaw process has consumed all available CPU, and the computer has been quite sluggish due to Freenet. I've also seen very low transfer speeds in FUQID (easiest to measure with, I think) - around 1-2kb/s when content is found. A few days ago I got a new system - a P4 3.2GHz, 1024Mb ram, still Windows 2000. Freenet now consumes around 0-1% CPU-time, it has no negative effect whatsoever on the performance of the rest of the system, and transfer speeds are up to 11kb/s. The Freenet node and contents are the same, I moved system behind my NAT so the Freenet network knows nothing of my change - it's all internal.

Allowing anyone to host Freenet clients for download only makes it more likely that at some time someone will host a Freenet client that actively compromises anonymity - for the user of that client, and maybe, networked together to perform traffic analysis and compromise others not running that client. This is a problem. If the Freenet CVS isn't secured enough to only allow core developers to submit, that need to be fixed. If it is - there's no problem. No one asks for releases personally certified by Toad or Ian - but a way to _know_ that the Freenet client comes from the Freenet project and not Joe Doe. I must confess that I would assume no Freenet client is released without someone manually checking the submitted code against privacy leaks, new developers shouldn't be able to submit code otherwise. I played with the idea of mailing this list, with a spoofed from (Toad, client update) and a link using a few well known Internet Explorer tricks that hides the true URL, and see how many people I could get to download a fake client. I didn't, though, since I guess more than a few people here might be all too upset by such a little scam. The easiest solution is to give out Freenet-links to the new versions, right? I'd still like to see a full blown digital signature solution, but in the mean time it's good enough if people already running Freenet know they can update their client within Freenet, from a well-known key. ___/ _/ -- http://troed.se - controversial views or common sense? ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support

In other words, any new nodes (unless installed by someone who knows what they are doing) will immediately fail, not talk to any other nodes, and give no semblance of working. As opposed to the usual behaviour of connecting to a few nodes and still not working :). http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/seednodes.ref now contains several stable noderefs, so if your stable node needs reseeding, you should be able to do it. New nodes should be able to connect to several other nodes and therefore become part of the network. As this will have prevented new users from using freenet at all, it seemed to be a fairly high priority. I recently had my IP changed, and after that I experienced Freenet (which was perfectly usuable from my node before) acted worse. I thought I could fix it by reseeding .. .. and that was a major mistake. Now Freenet is, for all purposes, dead here. I cannot even get the bookmarks of the web interface. So - stable nodes with a working network might want to export their seeds so that the rest of us can join in again :) I guess the situation I ended up with now is the same as for new nodes - and as Toad pointed out - that needs to be fixed ASAP. regards, Troed -- http://troed.se - controversial views or common sense? ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support
