 I follow the advice given by FIW (the Freesite Insertion Wizard), i.e.,
 for DBR sites, use a lower HTL (say, 15) than for an edition site or a
 one-shot site (where you may want to use, say, 25).  This makes sense,
 and seems to work well enough.

There is the trade-off with the overall time spent.

  memory/connection leaks (in fact can be fred, not fiw, who knows)
 
 
 The reasoning behind this is that the more frequently a site's data is
 updated, the less need for very deep insertions, as much of the data
 will be unchanged from one insert to the next, therefore a certain
 amount of redundancy is involved, resulting in an automatic
 reinforcement of the data within the network.
 
 Less frequently inserted data, on the other hand, basically only gets
 one chance to take, and will benefit from the deeper insertion (God,
 this sounds dirty, doesn't it?), distributing the data as far as
 possible into the network initially, helping it to later disseminate to
 other nodes more easily.
 
 Of course, there are other factors to consider as well.  Some of
 the more popular edition/one-shot sites may be accessed much more
 frequently than some DBR sites, thereby helping the data to propagate
 throughout the network, whereas some less popular DBR sites may actually
 benefit from deeper insertion.
 
 It's not a perfect science; there are really no hard-and-fast rules. 
 Just common sense and good judgement, basically, combined with how long
 you're willing to wait for your inserts to complete.  :-)

Me or the mankind ?   ;)

There is the limit of the proton half-life 8)
Seriously, changing from htl 6/10 to htl 25 how much
 affect insert time, in your experience ?

  No.  FIND is a DBR.  If you can load it, then it's been inserted
  very recently.  23/12/2004 is the date of the proprietor's most
  recent comment.  It's just that he hasn't found reason to comment

 Many thanks for your answer, but the site say

That is correct.  Sonax, maintainer of FIND, has been having problems
with the spider used to generate the index, and hasn't had the time or
inclination to fix it.

He's still inserting the site daily, but the actual index data has not
been updated in a couple of months now.

I've offered to help him resolve whatever issues are involved, but he
says he just doesn't have the time or motivation to do it at this time. 
Perhaps at some (hopefully near) future date.

  Windows xp. Usally when I shut down the node and

  not allowing enough time for it to completely stop before I update, this last

What system are you running, Windows or Linux? In Windows, there is 
an update snapshot program that should appear in your start menu. In Linux, 
there is a script. You should usually be able to update your snapshot by 
just shutting down your node. You shouldn't have to uninstall and reinstall 
it. Are you having a problem getting the script or update program to 
work?

A heisenbug refers to a bug that's very difficult to reproduce
or understand.  It's a reference to the Heisenberg Uncertainty
Principle from physics.  If you can provide the details to the
developers, it may help them.

Since I've never seen that message myself, I have no idea what it
actually means other than that.

 and usally i have to uninstall freenet to update my snapshot so how do i keep
 my node the same if i have to uninstall it for each new build?

You don't need to uninstall it!  Just stop the node, download the
new snapshot (freenet-latest.jar), move it into the Freenet directory
under the name freenet.jar (replacing the already-existing file
by that name), and then restart the node.
