dr|z3d let's see
zzz the key is PERCENT_LIMIT
zzz lower is stricter
zzz we agreed to 3%
dr|z3d as I said, the limit is around 20 tunnels in 220s in cannon. too lax you think?
dr|z3d if you look further down that commit you'll see that PERCENT_LIMIT is reduced.
dr|z3d in some cases, to lower than 3%
zzz ok, I can't figure that out, what is it for fast routers?
dr|z3d unless you're running with >=8 cores and >= 1024MB
dr|z3d then it's 5%
dr|z3d so to all intents and purposes, 3.3%
zzz ok, not terrible, but we agreed on 3% after seeing that 6% wasn't strict enough, so not sure why all that extra is necessary
zzz but apologies, didn't see the reduction code
dr|z3d no problem at all. if you're happier, I'm happy :)
zzz point is, take care not to let stormy's big fleet of fast routers contribute to this issue
dr|z3d of course, that guided my thinking when modifying the above.
zzz okey dokey
zzz not sure what's going on with the 'new routers' chart but perhaps somebody has time to investigate, I don't right now
dr|z3d been seeing spikes in known routers for a while now.
dr|z3d that graph, however, looks more like a gradual incline.
dr|z3d (or not-so-gradual)
zzz usual three options are: new bundled application, new publicity, or attack
zzz eyedeekay, any ideas?
dr|z3d there's darknetlive.i2p/post/i2p-the-invisible-internet-project-5978d407 but I doubt that's caused the ramp. might be wrong.
weko i belive this attack because i have transit tunnels with big traffic
weko 50300mb
weko 50-300mb
weko sometimes this 'waves' happen
weko with big num of this tunnels
obscuratus Re: spike in new routers: For my part, I've noticed a large number of entries in my logs for "Picked IPv6-only or unreachable peer for IBGW" that seems to coincide with the periods where the whole network is suffering from poor Exploratory build success.
obscuratus A can't precisely say the proporation, but when I spot check these routers, I see many that are both unreachable, and don't even have introducers.
obscuratus Either way, we don't track the IP address of unreachable routers. I don't know it's a problem, but if I think suspiciously, there's nothinig to stop a single IP from spawning 100s or 1000s of unreachable routers, and we wouldn't know.
obscuratus Nothing wrong with unreachable routers, but do we screen out unreachable routers without introducers when building exploratory tunnels?
dr|z3d I don't think there's any way to use an unreachable router without introducers, obscuratus, but temporary banning might be something to consider.
dr|z3d or just go for a straight-up session ban.
dr|z3d or maybe they're already caught by temp bans under "unreachable on any transport".
obscuratus dr|z3d: It might just a timing problem. They had introducers when they were selected for an exploratory tunnel, but by the time I checked my logs, the new RI no longer had introducers.
obscuratus But, no point in banning them, just don't select a unreacheable router without introducers for tunnels.
