I have this problem too. The box was thrashing a bit, so I added 512mb to the machine and set freenet 0.7 to use 256mb (was on the default of 128mb before). * Used Java memory: 207 MiB * Allocated Java memory: 254 MiB * Maximum Java memory: 254 MiB * Available CPUs: 1 * Running threads: 408 * JVM Vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc. * JVM Version: 1.5.0_09-b01 * OS Name: Windows 2000 * OS Version: 5.0 * OS Architecture: x86 At the moment I've got the following: * Connected: 1 * Backed off: 6 * Disconnected: 13 All backed off reasons are "ForwardRejectedOverload" nodeUptime: 6d4h * Total Output: 9.88 GiB (19.3 KiBps) * Payload Output: 7.53 GiB (14.7 KiBps) (76%) * Total Input: 7.62 GiB (14.9 KiBps) * Output Rate: 24.4 KiBps (of 30.0 KiBps) * Input Rate: 18.9 KiBps (of 120 KiBps) So it does seen to be working, which is fine, but as Volodya says, these "backed off" messages didn't happen that often in previous versions.
