age, computed trust score, etc. This becomes exactly as resistant to spam and censorship as the WoT is in other contexts. However, it has the other problem that scaling issues are harder. (WoT when used by Freetalk needs resources on the order of the number of people posting in boards you read. DNS can't be broken into groups with that level of locality, meaning it will scale roughly as the number of total DNS entries.) Evan Daniel

[freenet-dev] compressing files unnecessarily

n a portion of the file, and then deciding based on those results. However, I think we should use a larger section than 64 KiB; I propose 1 MiB. Test compression is still fast, and accuracy is improved, especially on files where the header and the contents are different. I suspect that, in general, the relative speed of lzma decompression and FEC decode means that lzma is the correct choice in any case where it beats gzip. (LZMA decode is very fast, unlike eg bz2. The compression is slow, but in most contexts a file will be uploaded once and downloaded multiple times.) Also, I'd have to check, but I believe FEC has comparable memory requirements, meaning that using gzip instead of lzma doesn't reduce the amount of memory needed. Evan Daniel

displaying results? It's only a few tens of MB of data, and it's in a fairly simple format. Several seconds to parse that on a multi-core, multi-GHz machine is abysmal. Does Library really need such a huge memory footprint? Freenet can decode the file fine without more memory, but Library regularly OOMs on large indexes with the default memory limits, even though it isn't actually using that large a piece of the file.
