Hello, Jan-Benedict Glaw! The current recommendation is to use immutable files for large files.
There is currently a hard limit of 3.5 million bytes for mutable files. Here is the ticket suggesting that we remove this hard limit, but commenting that it will still have some problems even if we do: http://allmydata.org/trac/tahoe/ticket/359 # eliminate hard limit on size of SDMFs Those problems include the memory-usage that you observed. (A patch to eliminate the hard limit and, of course, to test the source code somehow, would be welcome.) > And during create-client and create-introducer, an empty directory > is required. It would be nice to ignore "lost+found" while looking > up directory contents... I don't understand. What is "lost+found"? Do you mean that you would rather those commands would create a new directory instead of requiring an empty one? Oh, you mean that they should consider a directory containing only "lost+found" to be empty. Hm. I would probably accept a patch to do that, provided, of course, that doing so would not make our code-coverage statistics worse. :-) Regards, Zooko _______________________________________________ tahoe-dev mailing list [email protected] http://allmydata.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev
