Freenet 0.7.5 build 1356 is now out. Please upgrade, it will be mandatory in a week. Many, many changes (some of which result from testing on the testnet), including:
- Many packet/connection level changes: Shorter connection timeouts, more keepalives (only affects idle links), optimisations, disconnect if not receiving acks (indicates packet loss on one direction only), various disconnection related fixes, synchronization changes.
- Don't detect IP addresses on the packet receiving thread, and don't lookup the node's IPs from DNS there, was causing longish delays.
- Send various messages (mostly requests) synchronously (wait for them to be acked before waiting for a reply), and handle failing to send properly.
- Minor fixes to SSK inserts to prevent timeouts.
- Fix serious locking bug in CHK inserts resulting in the packet receiver thread blocking for 1-2 minutes (hence no other packets received in that time).
- Some more two stage timeouts (when we fail to get a response, move on, but separately wait to see if there is a serious problem; we do this in lots of places).
- Fix returning too early when waiting for downstream transfers in CHK inserts when there is a failure.
- Remove most testnet-related code, testnet is now separate.
- Track IP addresses of recently announced nodes on seednodes, show the top announcers on the stats page, probabilistically reject if they reannounce too often.
- Mostly minor client layer fixes including fixing the SOFT/HARD config.
- Fix a bug in the logger causing excessive delays in logging.
- Minor opennet fixes.
- Minor optimisations.
- Web interface fixes including don't show the priorities legend on the queue pages in simple mode, update bookmarks, warn users about java 1.5 if they are still using it.
- Content filter fix when there is content past the end of the valid file.
- Refactoring, comments, cleanups, and minor changes to support the future freenet-ext.jar #27.
