Mmmm... if speed is necessary, something like what distributed.net did is a thought - an abstract layer to handle all the networking activity and stuff in a standardized fashion, and a small core library specific to each architecture to handle the crypto as fast as possible. As far as scheduling though, any adjustments above what you start out with (0 under linux) *must* be done as root, or some daemon running as root which can be controlled via IPC to do it for you. The security implications of running a freenet node as root are... well... substantial. As a user, I wouldn't do it. ~ Signal 11 _______________________________________________ Freenet-dev mailing list Freenet-dev at lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/freenet-dev
