Freenet 0.7.5 build 1385 is now available, please upgrade.

The main change is merging the store-io branch, aka slot filters. This is a 
replacement for the old datastore bloom filters. It keeps 4 bytes in memory for 
each slot in the datastore, indicating whether they are full and the first few 
bytes of the (hashed, salted) key. This is slightly smaller than the old bloom 
filters, but is kept on the heap, not memory mapped, so it will increase your 
memory limit in wrapper.conf slightly when you first run it. It should greatly 
reduce disk I/O, in particular disk reads caused by writing a block to the 
datastore. It will delete the old bloom filters and build the new slotfilter 
files, which will take some time, during which the node will be using the disk 
quite heavily, but after that it should be much reduced.

Please let us know if there are any problems! There is also a new version of 
FlogHelper (which didn't work with the last build), a new load management fix 
and some minor stuff.

Thanks.
