Well I've tried hard to achieve node stability with build 5074. Here's what
has transpired.

Mac OS X 10.2.8 running pre-new-seed refresh build 50XX on a iBook 800Mhz,
640MB, 30Gig drive, over a cable modem and Airport router with no stability
issues just poor performance.

Decide to upgrade to Mac OS X 10.3.2 for some of those wonderful OS
features. The iBook, she begins over a period of days to kernal panic crash.
Had not seen those for a very long time. Nortons 8.0 could not resolve the
crashes after several attempts.

Decide to format the drive and reinstall clean Mac OS X 10.3.2. After
rebuilding the system and finally got Freenet 5074 reinstalled, things were
looking great. Freenet was working much faster and reliable than ever
before.

However, Freenet 5074 would not keep running for more thant 6 to 8 hours,
after which time, the Activity monitor would say 150MB of real memory was in
use, but the web client would stop responding.

Then the Apple Java update to JVM 1.4.2 was installed. Now Freenet 5074
after 6 to 8 hours not only stops, but I'm back to the kernal panic
crashing.

The iBook will run fine doing all manner of other things, play movies,
server a complicated PHP, SQL web site, handle mail, play all manner of
games with any problems.
