Ahh yes, well that's probably why we get questions like the original point. I read voraciously, try to make sense of it all, and couple it with my observations.

We must do something about it. :( It may well be better now, especially with these latest stable releases which seem much improved, thank you Toad. Again, just holler if you ever want some testing done. > Okay, what's the main advantage? Maybe we can improve the fproxy > interface? Since you ask: fproxy will timeout and then I have to start again. And then it won't even grab the parts it previously downloaded successfully :-( So over a period of weeks my perception is that I eventually move all the requisite parts into my local stored, and then fproxy will download it instantly :-) I certainly don't expect fproxy to be modified but perhaps one easy change would be an outer loop so it just circles back and tries again. It's probably just my low bandwidth, but I find that I will request something (and this includes web pages) and it's not there, and then 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 1 hour, 8 hours later it's there. My assumption has always been that my requests go out in an ever widening circle off to where the data I want may be found, but my request timesout before it gets back to me. Eventually (by dint of persistent requests) it is lodged in local stores that I can reach before timing out. > > My interest is websites that can never get slashdotted and can host large > > files while sharing the load, rather than file-sharing... > > Yeah, that would be cool, if it really worked, and if we had enough > hosts to be able to worry about such things! Ahh, well I'm here for the long haulnot that I'm any use. :-( I am a big fan of the privacy elements also. So be encouraged. You're not just creating an anonymous slow file-sharer.

[freenet-support] The hang on lost Internet
Todd, now that you're back with us: Obviously going into the 100% state after loosing a connection does nothing beneficial for the network. If I kill my note each evening in anticipation of the death and then reactivate it when I regain rationality the next day will this on-n-off activity of my node be of any value either to itself or to the network? Recall, I have dial up which is not great, but that I was getting integration until about two weeks ago, is running of any benefit at all? Thanks.

Depends on the personal use. In an "idle"-state (when I'm not browsing freesites or downloading splitfiles) my stable node generates about 2GB traffic within 24 hours on my 768/128 DSL line (the nodes upstream is limited to 8kbyte/sec). As I can download freshly inserted splitfiles at a maximum rate of about 80kbyte/sec the traffic can increase quite a bit when I actually use my node. If you really wan't to limit the nodes traffic you will be better of to do it system side, as the nodes limiter isn't that accurate and may lead to some nasty surprises on the next provider bill. ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Why did we never hear about it before? Are you sure it isn't a browser issue? What do you mean by request latency? There is no way that a single request should take an hour.

No, bytes per second is correct. Those figures are based on when you said you had a 200Mbit (sic). Sadly for you your connection seems to have dropped to 512Kb. :-) Sorry for taking you at your word.

There's lots of cool stuff with averaging limits, and immediate limits, and gradual adjustment. Together with incoming being not directly under control. It works very well for those of us with monthly bandwidth caps. It is my opinion that a node works [much!] better if it doesn't have the inputBandwidthLimit set at 0, but at a realistic value. That is based on month long tests but only on my own (128Kbit) node. From the little I can pick up as to how cooperative bandwidth limiting might work it makes sense to me theoretically as well. So if it was my node I'd have: inputBandwidthLimit=24000 outputBandwidthLimit=24000 (and if I was going away for a weekend or more I'd crank them both up to 48000 if no one else was using the bandwidth). > I'm not highly motivated right now to update the Java environment.

BUT..a big BUT... this was a movie file that CofE mentioned (and linked to) in his flog as a file he downloaded as a test. I'm guessing there would be many people like me who also downloaded the file as a test. Which would mean that Freenet, if operating as designed, would replicate more and more of this data throughout the network (a reverse Slashdot effect). That would certainly be consistent with my observations. And just to expose my complete Freebieness (a freenet newbie and I've only recently picked up that term recently), I had always done my downloading through the built in FRED interface. Ok, nice for built in, but now I do all my (few) downloads through Fuqid. What a difference. Haven't looked at anything equivalent for Linux.

But that?s worse, because it hides the errors. I now trie the normal ./start-freenet.sh script, provided by the freenet-project. This fails with the following error: ed: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory head: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory grep: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory grep: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory grep: error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Starting Freenet now: Command line: java -Xmx128m -XX:MaxDirectMemorySize=128m freenet.node.Main Done The requested libc.so.6 library sits in /lib directory. Perhaps I need to recompile the libc directory.
