IMHO we should ask the user how much disk space, and possibly how much bandwidth, they want Freenet to use in the installer. A number of users uninstalled because Freenet used an unexpectedly large amount of disk space. We can show a sane default based on our current rules, and the user can just click Continue if they are happy with it.
Thoughts? Also, our current rules may be in need of some revision: Datastore size: 256MB if <5GB free 512MB if <=10GB free 10% if <=20GB free 5% if >20GB free A simpler formula would probably be better. Maybe 5%, with a minimum of 100MB? Bandwidth: Half the bandwidth detected via UPnP, otherwise ask the user. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
