Sure, but we're determining whether to pre-emptively reject requests based on our estimate of load. Two of the factors are ping time (700-1500ms we reject some, more than that we reject all) and bwlimit delay time (1000-2000ms, but I think there is a problem with the limiter). The objective here is to prevent timeouts; timeouts are *bad*. -- Matthew J Toseland - toad at amphibian.dyndns.org Freenet Project Official Codemonkey - http://freenetproject.org/ ICTHUS - Nothing is impossible.
