dr|z3d, please keep an eye on 30 XfR i2pd routers at 162.218.65.84 and .85, let me know if you think they look sane...
dr|z3d
First glance, they don't look sane, zzz.
dr|z3d
All created ~35h ago.
dr|z3d
All FXR it appears.
dr|z3d
3 ips addresses, 83, 84, 85.
zzz
what's non-sane about them? they look ok-ish to me
dr|z3d
why would you spin up that many floodfills on the same 3 ips?
zzz
I assume they aren't the new StormyCloud fleet
dr|z3d
let's have a look, did you rdns the ip range?
zzz
US
StormyCloud
Not from us
dr|z3d
LOL
zzz
they do seem to be port hoppers, so they appear to be NATted
dr|z3d
not using "Fork Networking" for hosting, StormyCloud?
zzz
Fork based in TX so thought maybe
dr|z3d
That lookup suggests OR, not TX. Maybe they have presence all over.
zzz
I'm about to discuss SSU2 migration code w/ i2pd because they have some work to do, may be part of the problem
StormyCloud
That IP is someone using lionlink transit they are a large provider but not us
orignal
my that hard drive finally died
dr|z3d
you knew that was going to happen, orignal, no?
dr|z3d
smartmontools
orignal
I knew but was lazy
dr|z3d
don't be lazy! get a haircut!
dr|z3d
*** pokes orignal in the ribs. ***
orignal
why does snark can't go over 1.5 Mbs?
dr|z3d
So it seems Firefox/Librewolf is now reporting the error code when it can't connect to a site.
orignal
limts are 4
dr|z3d
I've seen it spike at over 4MB/s
orignal
it's redowloading most of shit from that dead drive
dr|z3d
+ or vanilla?
orignal
like 20-25 torrents
orignal
vanialla
orignal
and speed is not impressive
dr|z3d
it's smoothing out the speed.
dr|z3d
so you probably won't see spikes.
orignal
how?
dr|z3d
average over 45s, no, zzz?
dr|z3d
(in the UI)
orignal
if I'm capable to download with 4Mbs what's limiting it?
dr|z3d
the clients you're connected to.
dr|z3d
how many hops?
dr|z3d
(in snark)
orignal
3 hops
dr|z3d
try dropping down to 2, your speed will increase.
orignal
mostry other snarks
dr|z3d
you can optionally add some variability in tunnel length if you want 2-3 hops.
orignal
but why?
dr|z3d
because speed.
orignal
number of hops is latency not speed
dr|z3d
you want speed, reduce your hop count.
dr|z3d
try it.
orignal
will do
dr|z3d
remember, the speed is determined by the slowest router in the tunnel chain.. less hops, less chance of a slow router.
dr|z3d
so not just latency.
dr|z3d
example of Firefox error message (on Firefox generated error pages): "Error code: 500 Unable to connect"
zzz
don't know why "only 1.5 mbps" means something is wrong
zzz
there's no basis to presume that
orignal
that's how I see it
orignal
1.5 Mbs cap
dr|z3d
check your bandwidth limits on snark's config page.
dr|z3d
those are set dynmically based on available router bandwidth, though I don't know if that applies to i2pd/standalone.
orignal
4 mbs there
orignal
you are right!
orignal
that router is P
orignal
I need to ovveride limits
zzz
larger point stands. the constraints are the tunnels and the outbound capacity/congestion of the snark peers, not what you think the bw "should" be
zzz
tunnel bw params will help improve things
dr|z3d
but he paid for 4MBs and that's what he expects! :)
orignal
zzz, so should I increase number of tunnels?
dr|z3d
tunnel allocation is dynamic based on the number of connected peers, orignal
dr|z3d
so it doesn't hurt to bump the maximum.
orignal
me limit is 5
dr|z3d
bump it to max. it'll only use what it needs to.
orignal
let's increase to 8
dr|z3d
that's the max on vanilla.
orignal
10
orignal
is max
dr|z3d
oh, ok, maybe it got increased.
dr|z3d
max tunnels, 2 hops. you'll see speed improvements.
orignal
also this is i2p over ygg ))
orignal
but again it brings us to the question of 16 IBs max
orignal
do you know my idea, right?
orignal
well even better question
orignal
can I have 16 IB and 64 backup tunnels?
dr|z3d
no, you can't. leasesets max out at 16 leases.
orignal
that's why I'm asking about backup tunnels
orignal
they are not published
dr|z3d
ok, didn't realize they weren't published, zzz will know.
dr|z3d
obviously you can have as many outbound tunnels as you like. 100s!
orignal
yes what zzz said
orignal
my whole idea that we can send different leasesets to different peers
orignal
we publish one LS to find us and keep updating peers with different leasesets
zzz
the snark auto-tunnel-count is one tunnel for every two peers
orignal
zzz, what do you think about my idea?
orignal
to send different LS to different peer
orignal
if you need to share throusands torrents
zzz
interesting...
cumlord
i think this is what bigly doesn, isn't it?
orignal
no it uses multiple destinations
orignal
my idea is to use signle destination with many tunnels
orignal
what dpes "Tracker error" mean?
cumlord
oh, probably not understanding
cumlord
can't reach tracker, might say if torrents not registered on tracker2 i think
orignal
they are, ofc
orignal
dr|z3d. nice. I see 3 Mbs download with 2 hops.
dr|z3d
tada, orignal!
orignal
how it still doesn't answer why
dr|z3d
I told you, less hops, less chance of hitting a slow router.
dr|z3d
tracker errors are usually transient errors.
orignal
oh well, Java can't swith tunnels throgh I2CP
orignal
let me check if I bypass slow tunnels for I2CP
orignal
more that 250 ms per hop
