[freenet-support] I need to limit the amount of memory java uses.
I've read that there should be a parameter that limits java's mem usage in
/usr/bin/start-freenet.sh. Mine seems to lack that parameter. here is a copy of my
start-freenet.sh:

My node eats up HUNDREDS of megs of ram after several hours, and I need to limit it.
what do I need to add to this file?

RE: [freenet-support] Freenet causing crashes...
And yeah, typically 15-20 minutes. And when I say crash, I mean the whole system powers down. Goes to a black screen, my monitor shuts down, etc... That is surely a heat problem. Yeah, I know that's what it sounds like, but that ain't it. I finally got it figured out today. Apparently, SP2 reset my power-saving settings in my display properties, so it made my monitor power-down after 20 minutes. Man, do I feel foolish! But in my own defense, I've had heat-related crashes in the past, and that's the ONLY time my monitor ever goes into power-down mode, cuz I long ago set it to never do that. It WAS kinda puzzling that my monitor would go into power-down mode, yet my PC's power light would stay on. Usually during a heat-related crash, it'd just reboot. This time, it just sat there with a black monitor. It struck me as odd, but the screensaver thing didn't occur to me right away. Though I appreciate your efforts to help me. Thanks. I may have to quit running it anyway. It's starting to seem to me that running a node is a little bigger commitment than your typical P2P client, and that it's really more appropriate for running on it's own machine. I don't know that it'll be practical to keep it up and running 24/7 on my desktop system, as it is now. But we'll see. I'll leave it running overnight tonight and see how things go. I did some research today, and did some tweaking to my freenet.ini to try to get things working a little better. Time will tell. Anyway, thanks again.

RE: [freenet-support] Re: Freenet causing crashes...
That's good to know. Thanks. In the event log, does the message say TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent TCP connect attempts.? Cuz if so, that's the 10 half-open connection thing I mentioned in an earlier post. So far, that's the only TCPIP messages I've gotten in event manager, personally.

I know SP2 is still a bit new to most people, and it's a HUGE service pack, weighing in at over 260M, and it screws with hundreds of system files, so I'd like to be able to rule that out definitively if anybody here is using SP2 with Freenet without incident. There have been reports of it messing with other pieces of software, so I naturally assumed this might be a likely suspect. Adding a data point. I'm running Freenet on XP SP2 with no problems at all. The only point I've noted is that SP2 will throttle TCP/IP connections if too many failed connections occur in too short a time. When I restart Freenet I'll get a few events in the event log reporting that the throttling has kicked in. My assumption is that freenet is trying to reestablish connections to the nodes it knew about previously - some of which aren't there any more. This has done no harm that I can observe. Freenet has no problems starting up and isn't noticeably slower at doing so. It seems to run just the same as before and I haven't observed any connection throttling during Freenet operations. I'm happy. ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.su pport Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: [freenet-support] Problems with Freenet: from a windows perspective.
Well, I HAVE bumped into the half-open connection limit once or twice. Mostly it's an issue for people using P2P clients, edonkey, overnet, etc... It's easy enough to fix anway. I did some reading on the subject, and the recommendation I got was to manually change the config file to have TransientNode=False in it. Apparently Freenet won't integrate into the network as well if you're set to transient. In the process of testing it now. I'll know better in a day or so. Don -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael DeLisle Sent: Thursday, August 19, 2004 1:38 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [freenet-support] Problems with Freenet: from a windows perspective. I recently installed a new node from scratch on a Windows XP SP2 box, and here are my observations. While there's lots of talk about SP2 limiting TCP connections, I haven't see any real issues with it. On the negative side, freenet-java-webinstall.exe is configured to install Sun JRE 1.4.1, when I believe it should install 1.4.2. After 5 hours of uptime I only have 72 open connections. This was a problem I experienced on my linux based node too; either the seednodes.ref file is inadequate (weighing in at 26mB!) or Freenet 5091 isn't aggressive enough about meeting maxNodeConnections. I would also like to point out that I'm currently only using ~50% of my upstream bandwidth, based on frequent observation of the General Information page. Perhaps Freenet should be more apt to take advantage of newbie nodes? If there's any other information that would be of assistance, please let me know. --mikeDOTd ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.su pport Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Support mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://dodo.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Transient isn't that relevant anymore; the current build in CVS has all traces of the Transient property removed. So you won't notice much of a difference using this property on stable (build 5091).

Steve: This is interesting. If you don't submit a bug report to
bugs.gentoo.org, I will. This script, /usr/bin/start-freenet.sh is essentially
another method of running Freenet on Gentoo, the other being
'/etc/init.d/freenet start'. The init script correctly sets JVM memory usage,
but the above doesn't, of course. The init script properly sets memory usage
by looking in /etc/conf.d/freenet. In /etc/conf.d/freenet, the environment
variable called $JAVA_OPTIONS is set to -Xmx256M, by default.
There are two ways you could fix this. 1) is to change the above script to
somehow have the -Xmx256M option passed to ${JAVA}, along with what's already
there. Either add it directly or set $JAVA_OPTIONS and add that. 2) is to run
Freenet from the initscript, which requires being root.
Number 2, of course, is much better than number 1. For one thing, your number 1
will get overwritten in the future.
Let me/us know if you still have problems.

[freenet-support] Gentoo Freenet Script
If you're running Freenet from a Portage-installed package on Gentoo, the
following script will work.
--
#!/bin/sh
# Freenet Wrapper Script
if [ ${1} == start ]; then
echo /etc/init.d/freenet start
/etc/init.d/freenet start
fi
if [ ${1} == stop ]; then
echo /etc/init.d/freenet stop
/etc/init.d/freenet stop
fi
if [ ${1} == restart ]; then
echo /etc/init.d/freenet restart
/etc/init.d/freenet restart
fi
# The most important part follows. This is to
# update the node. The others are almost as easy
# to do myself, from the command line. But the
# update script is the heart of the matter.
if [ ${1} == update ]; then
cp -f /usr/lib/freenet/freenet.jar.old
/usr/lib/freenet/freenet.jar.ancient
cp -f /usr/lib/freenet/freenet.jar /usr/lib/freenet/freenet.jar.old
wget http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/freenet-latest.jar -O
/usr/lib/freenet/freenet.jar
wget http://freenetproject.org/snapshots/seednodes.ref.bz2 -O

Call this script freenet and add it to your $PATH and running/administering
Freenet becomes a matter of typing 'freenet start'. This may not be useful,
it's almost just as easy to type '/etc/init.d/freenet start', or you may have
'rc-update add freenet default' in the past. But the fourth option 'freenet
update' is where it gets interesting. The default install of Freenet, via
Portage, requires you to type that god-awful ebuild-config-wait-2-seconds
thing. Once you get that typed in you have the problem of wget nuking your
Freenet jar if freenetproject.org is down. This happened to me. Wget tried to
overwrite the freenet.jar, but since the website was down, got no further than
the 0th byte, leaving me with no Freenet. =(
The above script fixes both of these issues. It simplifies the command to
update Freenet, and it makes a backup of freenet.jar before downloading the new
one.
Caveats: It actually makes two backups. This is probably not useful to anybody.
You can remove the creation of the second backup. Also, this doesn't handle
updating unstable nodes. But if you're running unstable, you're more than
likely not running a Portage ebuild of Freenet. Third caveat, I suppose, is
that this doesn't give you a 'freenet config' command. 'vi /etc/freenet.conf'.

Re: [freenet-support] I need to limit the amount of memory java uses.
Interesting. This does not set a limit, so it would use the default.
Which is 64MB! Are you sure you're not reading the wrong memory usage
indicator? VIRT is pretty meaningless, RSS is more interesting iirc...
