Hopefully, with AIMDs enabled and NLM also enabled, queue times will be around 1 second, so bulk requests will take maybe 15 seconds longer than normal, but get far fewer backoffs (as well as more accurate routing), compared to OLM, which should result in higher overall performance than OLM and higher performance than with a near-saturated NLM network, which *seems* to be what we've had in 1399. It would be better to have a solution that didn't rely on the originator behaving itself, but a small number of bad nodes won't be able to severely impact performance...

Can't help with anything except report that for me, since 1397 
downloading and inserting files is next to 0 blocks/m. With 1400, 
exactly 0. Even the first block that gives the filesize now doesn't come in.
In 1400 also Frost messaging stopped working as well.
So except for loading freepages and seeing figures on Fproxy, at this 
moment Freenet is completely defunct for me.

System rebooted, entirely new FN install at default settings. Tried 
different combinations of AIMD and NLM to no avail. In and output 
appeared to be at normal speeds (on the 'strangers' page) while nothing 
actually down/uploaded. Now in/out rate is mostly down to 10, 15 KiB, at 
the moment about 50, with a normal # of connections.
