I set it to defrag everyone's node.db4o once because it shrunk mine by a factor 
of 10. I did tell it to allow some time, 1 second per KB with a maximum of 24 
hours (because very high numbers cause the wrapper to die immediately). 800MB 
should therefore have been allowed 1 day. It took longer than that or it failed 
instantly? I don't suppose you still have the wrapper.log? Also you *can* 
recover in such a case, we do move the old node.db4o, and you can tell it not 
to defrag in freenet.ini (node.defragDatabaseOnStartup=false). Sorry it took so 
long to get to you.
