Are you using FIW, and if so, have you noticed any improvements since
0.08 came out? 

I have a DBR site which I quit bothering to attempt insertions for late
last year. I picked back up recently, and then found FIW 0.08 on Monday,
but I see no difference. Half an hour or more to successfully insert a
5KB index.html plus the slot (the rest get skipped since they're
unchanged) with HTL 15...

Even at that, the insert doesn't actually complete, I get a status of
"Done" for inserting the slot and then I quit FIW without waiting for it
to verify the insertion. If I leave it running, it'll sit there forever
on "Getting" with tons of RouteNFs, though the site is accessible
through my fproxy.

Can't tell whether it's a problem with FIW or with the network, but I
used to be able to insert the whole site in under 5 minutes (thinking
back to September or October). Now it takes half an hour just to insert
the index.html and the slot. Granted I haven't been trying very often,
but it seems like insertion is a real problem lately.

I also have noticed that the number of keys in my datastore isn't
increasing very much anymore. I've been hovering between 39900 and 40100
keys for several days now (when the node dies or I restart, I typically
lose some key count due to whatever was stored in the temporary files).
I last nuked the datastore on November 26, so I've accumulated ~40K keys
in less than two months, bringing my store to about 60% full. Then all
of a sudden the datastore hasn't grown by 200 persistent keys in several
days. 

Seems to me either nobody's inserting anything, or nobody's requesting
anything new, or maybe everyone's inserting and requesting as usual but
the data isn't getting propagated. One thing of interest is that in
Frost, on Monday I got a whole bunch of troll messages (Oprah Winfrey
everywhere) but I haven't seen much since. It's as if nothing's getting
through, or perhaps nobody's posting anything, or perhaps people are
posting but nobody's able to see it, which takes me back to "I don't
know what the problem is" :)

BTW this experience is all on stable, I know you're inserting from
unstable so I'll have to give it a shot there and see how things turn
out. What HTL are you using to insert?
