Re: [Mldonkey-users] Still a few bugs

[John Rajda]

hi roland!

1) yes, but mldonkey is searching for servers also. the web_infos are
just some servers, that is some kind 'third party search results'...
nothing more. your mldonkey just trys to find other servers itself.

2) a fix for this will not be healthy. your mldonkey will not know,
which is the right server for this. arround time i always see server-
names 'just another edonkey server' arround 10-20 times. all are real
servers. i would like to see, that the serverage-entry would be based
in hours than in days. the remove_old_servers-string works not for me
too, but perhaps it'll be fixed soon :)

3) what max_upload/max_download you are using? perhaps you should try
to set it to 5/50 or 6/60 for the starting? i use 6/60 on a 768kbit-dsl
and it works perfect for me. sometimes i try to hit it higher, but
i change it too quickly back to get my results ;)

4) you're right, i would like to see it back too. i liked it, it gave
me some more using the telnet-port of mldonkey, when i'm not at home.

just my 2 cents!

Arendes> Hi

Arendes> I just wanted to sum up the bugs in the 2.00+2. Perhaps mldonkey will 
take
Arendes> the time and fix it. :-)

Arendes> Please post your comments on these issues.

Arendes> 1) I have update_server_list set to false and added n servers I want to
Arendes> use. A few days later I have about 2000 servers. I have no web_infos 
added
Arendes> and the server list keeps increasing. I think this happens by received
Arendes> server IPs vom other mldonkeys (propagate_servers?).

Arendes> 2) The are plenty entries in my serverlist which doubled over time. 
Some
Arendes> exist there 30 times (I mean the description of the server, with 30
Arendes> different T-Online IPs). I have max_server_age set to 1, and they
Arendes> shouldn't be there. remove_old_servers doesn't help, too. These 
duplicate
Arendes> IPs can't be active, because their age is >1 day (and T-Online DSL
Arendes> forcefully disconnects after 24h. In the servers description it is even
Arendes> mentioned that they're based on T-DSL). Why are they still there? I 
think
Arendes> it's a bug in the serverlist management (like point 1 above)

Arendes> 3) The Upload management is still a mess. Without any download of mine 
and
Arendes> only sharing, the max_hard_upload_rate is perfectly at the value it 
should
Arendes> be. I tested 3,4,5,..10,..12. As soon as I add ONE download, the 
upstream
Arendes> collapses over time, regardless of the max_hard_upload_rate setting. I
Arendes> think the bytecounter of the upload management ignores any requests. 
This
Arendes> should be fixed. Many mldonkeys I know of decrease max_hard_upload_rate
Arendes> because mldonkey is killing their line. But this doesn't help so they
Arendes> decrease further and further. They still have 14k/s outgoing, but 
12k/s of
Arendes> them are requests or answer to those. This sucks. We have to get this
Arendes> upload management fixed. Perhaps it's just called wrong. We should add 
an
Arendes> max_hard_upstream_rate which means every byte going up, not just the
Arendes> chunks.

Arendes> 4) Please re-implement a chunk display in the telnet interface. As you 
can
Arendes> see by many requests this is needed for third party frontends (e.g. 
php).

Arendes> Awaiting your replies..

Arendes> Roland
