Yeah, this is really what I am trying to do with nfreenetd. Of course, most people won't have to run nfreenetd (and many of these people are going to be Windows users, so they can't use nfreenetd), but the there are always going to be Unix/Linux speed-junkies who are running nodes with massive datastores and large pipes. Of course, I will try to make nfreenetd fully compliant with the Freenet reference implementation (even though I am adding features that just won't be accessible to the outside world in anticipation of planned future stuff like subspaces, searching, and updating). -- Travis Bemann Sendmail is still screwed up on my box.
