This is different to 1338? I don't know what is normal for your node, you have a rather odd setup. Testing so far suggests once it settles fproxy performs almost acceptable, dunno about bulk downloads. > > In general, whenever I look at my strangers, most of them will be: > FatalTimeout/SENDER_DIED > FatalTimeout/TransferFailedInsert > FatalTimeout/AfterInsertAcceptedTimeout > FatalTimeout/ForwardRejectedOverload2 See that here too, but mostly for realtime.

UDP and ICMP are routed differently, and there are significant delays imposed by Freenet for bandwidth efficiency reasons. > > Also, perhaps unrelated, why was I being connected to 11 peers, with a > 15KB/s connection? Isn't that too high? Although, even after I halved > this, nothing much changed. There is a minimum. IIRC it is 10 peers. Beyond that it's a square-root relationship because each peer brings more traffic incoming as well as outgoing.
