Not as far as I can tell, or least very little. I have bandwidth set to 8k both ways, threads set to 20, and I'm showing something like 200 processes right just now and my connection is choked. I'll have to turn the node off to get this posting out. Very odd. In fact, it really does not seem to matter if I adjust anything to do with resources- the node instantly gobbles everything once it has announced. Yum-yum, burp, want more! I don't think nicing will help, since I'm not using the box for anything else and all things being equal the threads presumably will be end up sharing system resources "nicely". Bear in mind that things _were_ working perfectly up until yesterday before The Posting. All the same, other than the node announcement chitchat storm (and judging from the comments I saw on Slashdot it's really hard to say how many actually managed to accomplish anything besides wiping out their own porn and music collections and then throwing tantrums when they were not instantly presented with infinite free goodies), I wonder if as Freenet becomes more popular the kind of traffic you're seeing now will be normal. Maybe these are the first symptoms of chronic leaching. The classic peer-peer networks essentially forced people to contribute if they wanted to participate, while Freenet does not and probably cannot because of routing issues. Don't know, but only one thing to do, keep trying. As a US citizen I'm obligated to help offset the damage we've done by firewalling China... _______________________________________________ support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
