a) So if I take a key value and insert exactly one byte of data for it, that data will never expire? What if I flood Freenet with thousands of one byte inserts? Will they be blocking datastores (which are limited by number of entries as well) and never be cleared? b) Isn't this a little risky do right before a release without testing as to the effects? c) You'd need to make sure searchData() does the same thing (if you want it too).
