I've tested the result of loss of Internet connection, both spontaneously and intentionally, enough times that I am confident Freenet cannot recover to effectively use the network until it is manually stopped and restarted. I believe it is necessary to actually exit from Freenet before it can reestablish proper communication. Several that reported continued 100% CPU usage may have been experiencing this behavior without recognizing that loss of Internet connection was the cause. One may not loose all the learning and integration into the network after doing an exit and restart, but it seems to take longer to attain smooth function after such a restart than when one simply does a normal shutdown and startup several hours later. It appears that many inbound or outbound connection fail to be established readily after lost of the internet connection (probably because they have backed off of a badly performing link).
Can any other Windows user confirm my experience?
N.S.
