After it's implemented, the node would need to keep only one connection open per node. Sounds promising! If it works, I imagine it will benefit Freenet greatly. Now here's hoping toad doesn't work at the speed his nick suggests g. -- Jan ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support

On Tuesday 16 December 2003 01:12 pm, John McCain: [ponders over why freenet is working so badly] Well, I know next to nothing about networking. But in the time I ran Napster I noticed that many connections slow down the overall bandwith. My ISP caps my upstream to 16 KBs, which a single connection indeed could be. Two downloaders get 6 K if they're lucky and four leechers go at 2 tops, something like that. When I allowed 8 or more lurkers, they usually never got their files.

[freenet-support] Freenet woes
Okay, we all know the following: As of right now, freenet pretty much does not work. Content cannot be accessed. People have stopped trying to update content, and people are dropping out of the network. The character of the discussion of freenet has changed from a working free network to an interesting but incomplete science project. What is the problem? I understand that bugs happen, and I am not looking to bust anyone's chops over it. I am interested, however, in knowing the following things: -Do the developers know what is wrong? -Are they sure that freenet's bad behavior of late is not the result of some sort of poisoning attack? Thanks. ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support
