Sorry, but forget that. In Freenet there is no thing like a "one peak" 
specialisation for more than one minute.
And when the network can hold more data, it increases the "lifetime" of 
seldom requested keys.
Specialization changes over time, anyway.

The only drawback may be that your "ubernode" becomes popular over time 
because of more successful replies :-) (much connections increase request 
ability aswell)

Routing does not get better when your node has to purge "old" keys on new 
requests - maybe they are requested just one minute later -> more net 
load :-(
