* Adjust the jbigi.jar to use the athlon-optimized jbigi on windows/amd64
machines, rather than the generic jbigi (until we have an athlon64
optimized version)
* Switch from the bouncycastle to the gnu-crypto implementation for
SHA256, as benchmarks show a 10-30% speedup.
* Removed some unnecessary object caches
* Don't close i2psnark streams prematurely
* Run the peer profile coalescing/reorganization outside the job queue
(on one of the timers), to cut down on some job queue congestion. Also,
trim old profiles while running, not just when starting up.
* Slightly more sane intra-floodfill-node netDb activity (only flood new
entries)
* Workaround in the I2PTunnelHTTPServer for some bad requests (though the
source of the bug is not yet addressed)
* Better I2PSnark reconnection handling
* Further cleanup in the new tunnel build process
* Make sure we expire old participants properly
* Remove much of the transient overload throttling (it wasn't using a good
metric)
* New tunnel build process - does not use the new crypto or new peer
selection strategies. However, it does drop the fallback tunnel
procedure, except for tunnels who are configured to allow them, or for
the exploratory pool during bootstrapping or after a catastrophic
failure. This new process prefers to fail rather than use too-short
tunnels, so while it can do some pretty aggressive tunnel rebuilding,
it may expose more tunnel failures to the user.
* Always prefer normal tunnels to fallback tunnels.
* Potential fix for a bug while changing i2cp settings on I2PSnark (thanks
bar!)
* Do all of the netDb entry writing in a separate thread, avoiding
duplicates and batching them up.
* Disable multifile torrent creation in I2PSnark's web UI for the moment
(though it can still seed and participate in multifile swarms)
* Enable a new speed calculation for profiling peers, using their peak
1 minute average tunnel throughput as their speed.
* Include a simple torrent creator in the I2PSnark web UI
* Further streaming lib closing improvements
* Refactored the load test components to run off live tunnels (though,
still not safe for normal/anonymous load testing)
* Add a new Status: line on the router console - "ERR-ClockSkew", in case
the clock is too skewed to do anything useful (check the year and month,
not just the hour and minute).
* Fixed the read/write timeouts in the streaming lib (so that it actually
honors them now)
* Minor I2PSnark cleanups (no read timeout, more careful shutdown and
torrent closing)
* Handle an oddball tunnel creation failure (thanks Xunk)

* Bundle the standalone I2PSnark launcher in the installer and update
process (launch as "java -jar launch-i2psnark.jar", viewing the
interface on http://localhost:8002/)
* Don't autostart swarming torrents by default so that you can run a
standalone I2PSnark from the I2P install dir and not have the embedded
I2PSnark autolaunch the torrents that the standalone instance is running
* Fixed a rare streaming lib bug that could let a blocking call wait
forever.
* Fix for old Syndie blog bookmarks (thanks Complication!)
* Fix for I2PSnark to accept incoming connections again (oops)
* Randomize the order that peers from the tracker are contacted
* I2PSnark logging, disconnect old inactive peers rather than new ones,
memory usage reduction, better OOM handling, and a shared connection
acceptor.
* Cleaned up the Syndie blog page and the resulting filters (viewing a
blog from the blog page shows threads started by the selected author,
not those that they merely participate in)
* Added a standalone runner for the I2PSnark web ui (build with the
command "ant i2psnark", unzip i2psnark-standalone.zip somewhere, run
with "java -jar launch-i2psnark.jar", and go to http://localhost:8002/).
* Further I2PSnark error handling
* Added some I2PSnark sanity checks, an OOMListener when running
standalone, and a guard against keeping memory tied up indefinitely.
* Sanity check on the watchdog (thanks zzz!)
* Handle invalid HTTP requests in I2PTunnel a little better
* Moved I2PSnark from using Threads to I2PThreads, so we handle OOMs
properly (thanks Complication!)
* More guards in I2PSnark for zany behavior (I2PSession recon w/ skew,
b0rking in the DirMonitor, etc)
* Added multitorrent support to I2PSnark, accessible currently by running
"i2psnark.jar --config i2psnark.config" (which may or may not exist).
It then joins the swarm for any torrents in ./i2psnark/*.torrent, saving
their data in that directory as well. Removing the .torrent file stops
participation, and it is currently set to seed indefinitely. Completion
is logged to the logger and standard output, with further UI interaction
left to the (work in progress) web UI.
* Fix to drop peer references when we shitlist people again (thanks zzz!)
* Further I2PSnark fixes to deal with arbitrary torrent info attributes
(thanks Complication!)
* Fixed I2PSnark's handling of some torrent files to deal with those
created by Azureus and I2PRufus (it didn't know how to deal with
additional meta info, such as path.utf-8 or name.utf-8).
libjbigi.so. Yeah, this means that i2psnark uses pure java modPow, but it doesn't do
any real heavy lifting anyway, except a DSA signature every 5-10 minutes. whoop de do.
The build in tracker has been removed for simplicity.
Example usage:
java -jar lib/i2psnark.jar myFile.torrent
or, a more verbose setting:
java -jar lib/i2psnark.jar --eepproxy 127.0.0.1 4444 \
--i2cp 127.0.0.1 7654 "inbound.length=2 outbound.length=2" \
--debug 6 myFile.torrent
