Hi y'all, update time

* 1) Network status and 0.3.4.3
|
|
|
|
While the network has been functional over the last week, there has
|
|
been a lot of trouble at times, leading to a dramatic decrease in
|
|
reliability. The 0.3.4.2 release has helped out significantly in
|
|
addressing a DoS caused by some incompatability and time
|
|
synchronization issues - see the graph of network database
|
|
requests [1] showing the DoS (spikes off the chart) which was
|
|
stopped by the introduction of 0.3.4.2. Unfortunately, that in
|
|
turn introduced its own set of issues, causing a significant number
|
|
of messages to be retransmitted, as can be seen in the bandwidth
|
|
plot [2]. The increased load there was also due to an actual
|
|
increase in user activity, so its not /that/ crazy ;) But still,
|
|
it was a problem.
|
|
|
|
Over the last few days, I've been pretty selfish. We've had a bunch
|
|
of bugfixes tested and deployed on a few routers, but I haven't
|
|
released it yet, since I rarely get to test out the interplay of
|
|
incompatabilities in the software when I run my sims. So, you've
|
|
been subjected to exceedingly shitty network operation while I
|
|
tweak things to find ways to let routers perform well when a lot
|
|
of routers suck. We're making progress on that front - profiling
|
|
and avoiding peers who exploit the network database, managing
|
|
network database request queues more efficiently, and enforcing
|
|
tunnel diversification.
|
|
|
|
We're not there yet, but I'm hopeful. Tests are being run now on the
|
|
live net, and when its ready, there will be a 0.3.4.3 release pushing
|
|
the results.

Aum has been doing some kickass work on his DHT [3], and while it
|
|
currently has some significant limitations, it looks promising. Its
|
|
definitely not ready for general use yet, but if you're up for
|
|
helping him out with testing (or coding :), check out the site and
|
|
start up a node.

Thats 'bout it for now. Since the meeting should have started a
|
|
minute ago, I should probably wrap this up. See y'all in #i2p!
