We need to deal with out of disk space better than we do now. We should have two limits: Lower limit: If we have less than this amount, Freenet shuts everything down, and tells the user to free up some disk space. Upper limit: If we have less than this amount, Freenet attempts to free some up via e.g. defragging the persistent-temp blob files more enthusiastically. If the computer we are installing on has a relatively small amount of space (e.g. within a factor of 2 of the default upper limit), we should ask the user for the thresholds. But we need some sane defaults. What is sane? 5GB/1GB? 1GB/0.5GB? This may be different for different operating systems (Windows/Linux/Mac) ... Also, long term, it may be possible to use multiple datastores to automatically adjust our disk usage. In which case two new policies are possible: - Use X% of my available disk space (probably with a lower limit). - Ensure that X GB are available for my files at all times. _______________________________________________ Support mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-request-RdDMkVZAZeuJnvDnx1genB2eb7JE58TQ@public.gmane.org?subject=unsubscribe
