 Currently I am running freenet on an old P2 linux box permanently. The memory is 
 limited to 100mb, but as long as I do not use the fproxy interface too much I can 
 run a freenet node for more then 2 days. (at least that was the case around one week 
 ago.) The CPU usage is also ok, I am not experiencing any problems which could be 
 caused from an overloaded CPU. The linux computer is behind a NAT router with port 
 forwarding set and has a extremly limited upload bandwith (7kb/s) and a more 
 moderatly set download bandwith (40kb/s right now thinking of limiting to 20kb/s) 
 because this way I am able to use the internet for other things while running the 
 freenet node the whole time. (the bandwith limits are set in the config of the node 
 - higher set upload bandwith caused the whole internet access to be blocked 
 sometimes - using DSL). Currently the node gets around 1500 request/hour and 
 finishes around 4% (thats changing often, this is a better value) of them. The 
 node has a datastore of 25GB, which is completly used. Data seems to last around 3 
 months in it(unaccessed), but that will depend on how much I download. If I download 
 not so much data it will last longer. Currently I am having problems with RNFs 
 despite more then 100 connections and a routing table of ~400 nodes (~300 node 
 references), but data finding is not bad as soon as a request can be made. (The 
 popular dbr sites can be fetched most of the time, only near the rollover time I 
 have sometimes problems which seems logical.) To the usage: I am runing a second 
 computer permanently for fuqid and frost, but I use only a small amount of threads 
 for requests. (normally around 20 threads together)

Woah.

 So as you see it is really possible to use freenet with DSL and NAT.

 I'm running 5076. What's new in 5077?

A very very long list of changes - some very important bugfixes, some
fairly major architectural changes (now the routing table is larger than
the connected nodes rather than being smaller - this should definitely
help you...), etc etc. I announced it a few days ago.
 
 Number of node references
 32

That's bad. What's your rtMaxNodes set to? Are you running some crippled
operating system that forces us to limit it unnecessarily e.g. Windows 98?

Fair enough.

Not unexpected. You need more connections. Upgrading to 5077 is probably
going to help you significantly.

Hm, interesting. This is the kind of thing I'd like to hear from 
people. C'mon, if you guys can support freenet, can't you tell me about 
your real-life experiences with it?

And yeah, I do know how to port map, but in my situation, I'm not 
allowed to port map anything (yeah, i have a strange internet 
arrangement - I don't control the NAT box).

Before anyone comments further on this, I am behind NAT without port
