That may indicates other problems, by restrivting the number of allowed references you could rather fix symptoms than causes. It might be a sign for: - Nodes replace the datasource= too eagerly with their own address when forwarding requests - Too many transient nodes set the datasource= to themselves, thus having these references deleted very soon by others - Nodes discard references to other nodes as soon as a request to one specific file on that node fails. How about keeping references to these nodes and trying from time to time to request something different from them, so that you might learn about their "special" key space. > > IC> Only one reference to each node is permitted in the datastore. > > > > You have really got to be joking.
