Ok, so the basic concept is that we are creating relays and then relaying all requests through them, what is the danger if a relay is an attacker? I hope you are right that this won't slow things down - but I'm somewhat pessimistic about that. Either way, we need to test carefully, a more secure but unusable Freenet is a waste of time.
