Let me get this machine home and running a few days to make sure it all works first. There is a good possibility I am talking out my ass about all this ;-) Yeh, I don't know how you could verify that the fd limit had been upped within a java program. I think the safest thing to do is to continue to default OSX boxes to 128 maxNodeConnections, and in the start script and README, put comments explaining that if you uncomment and up the node count, you MUST use the start-freenet.sh shell script to start freenet so it can increase the fd limit.

The hard limit is only limited by the system limit for all processes, which is over 12000. The soft limit is the only one that needs to be upped, since it is what is capping us at 256. So, trying to do: ulimit -n 1024 might fail because it is trying to change both the soft and hard limits, whereas: ulimit -S -n 1024 Is just changing the soft limit (the hard limit is unlimited...)

I know Java 1.4.2 (at least the latest version installed with 10.3.9) will crater with Kernel Panics. It sounds a lot like the problems that Azureus suffered from on Dual Processor Macs. When too many connections were opened simultaniously, Azureus would kernel panic. Apparently they found a work- around though. For my test this weekend, I'm gonna go for broke and use the latest JVM available for Tiger (1.5.0_04-39) and see how it goes. (If anyone else installs it, keep in mind your computer will continue to use the 1.4.X version unless you change a specific directory link, or use a hard coded path to the java 1.5 binary.) I did see some things in the start-freenet.sh script that might need to be changed to improve performance/clarity. First, it doesn't set the java argument -xx:MaxDirectMemorySize if you are running on OSX with JVM 1.4.2 or later. That is a legit flag for the OSX Sun JVM, so I don't know why it skips that argument only on OSX (Darwin). I'm just commenting out the "if" and "fi" statements above and below the line that sets that argument. Second, when launched on a machine running a JVM later than 1.4.2, it still says you are using 1.4.2. It should say: "Sun Java 1.4.2 or later detected." Finally, as the readme suggests, I'm adding these lines to the start script just before the "Starting freenet now" line: if test `uname` == "Darwin"; then ulimit -S -n 1024 fi That ups the file descriptor limit to the same as the default on other platforms. After that, you need to up the "maxNodeConnections" parameter to 512 in the config file. I'm also upping the memory limit to -Xmx256m just because the machine has a decent amount of ram. With these changes, OSX should be running with the same parameters as linux or windows.

I know Java 1.4.2 (at least the latest version installed with 10.3.9) will crater with Kernel Panics. It sounds a lot like the problems that Azureus suffered from on Dual Processor Macs. When too many connections were opened simultaniously, Azureus would kernel panic. Apparently they found a work- around though. For my test this weekend, I'm gonna go for broke and use the latest JVM available for Tiger (1.5.0_04-39) and see how it goes. (If anyone else installs it, keep in mind your computer will continue to use the 1.4.X version unless you change a specific directory link, or use a hard coded path to the java 1.5 binary.) I did see some things in the start-freenet.sh script that might need to be changed to improve performance/clarity. First, it doesn't set the java argument -xx:MaxDirectMemorySize if you are running on OSX with JVM 1.4.2 or later. That is a legit flag for the OSX Sun JVM, so I don't know why it skips that argument only on OSX (Darwin). I'm just commenting out the "if" and "fi" statements above and below the line that sets that argument. Second, when launched on a machine running a JVM later than 1.4.2, it still says you are using 1.4.2. It should say: "Sun Java 1.4.2 or later detected." Finally, as the readme suggests, I'm adding these lines to the start script just before the "Starting freenet now" line: if test `uname` == "Darwin"; then ulimit -S -n 1024 fi That ups the file descriptor limit to the same as the default on other platforms. After that, you need to up the "maxNodeConnections" parameter to 512 in the config file. I'm also upping the memory limit to -Xmx256m just because the machine has a decent amount of ram. With these changes, OSX should be running with the same parameters as linux or windows. ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[freenet-support] Re: OSX builds of freenet
Can we get this Mac OS X native jbigi library incorporated in to future Freenet releases? I've been running Freenet on Mac OS X for about two years now. It usually runs for 2 to 7 days before it grinds to a halt with either an out of memory error or some kind of error in the "abstractor loop". Having better performance while Freenet is up would be great. Fixing the above errors would also be nice. Thanks, Paul Squished Squirrel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: Matthew Toseland ...> writes: > > Cool. What code changes? > I added a couple case statements to NativeBigInteger.java, similar to those suggested by Josh Watzman earlier this month. I think his diff also added support for loading an external jbigi library without having to rebuild the freenet-ext.jar file. My changes only work if the library is put into the jar. I'm *assuming* that his code changes result in a requested library name of "libjbigi-osx-none.jnilib". I don't know for sure, since I found his diff after I had already made my changes. I used the jbigi source from i2p since the build scripts for it had already been modified to support OSX. The resulting file was libjbigi.jnilib, which just needed to be renamed to "libjbigi-osx-none.jnilib" and inserted into freenet-ext.jar. The i2p_0_6_0_6 source builds the jbigi library static, so I'm hoping that it will run fine on a Mac that doesn't have gmp installed. Someone else said they had managed to build the library on the Mac, but their library was dynamic and would only run on a Mac with gmp already installed (or something to that effect.) After the osx jbigi library is inserted in to the freenet-ext.jar, I dropped that into the lib folder of the current stable source and built the project using ant. I won't discuss how many wrong turns I made on the way And the result on starting freenet...
