Hi,
I was attempting several different parameters for maximising the
download throughput and source lookups. I tried disabling overnet to
see how the overall performance behaved. But after disabling overnet
(and even restarting mldonkey) when clicking "Overnet stats" in the
web interface, I get 6282 known peers (I set the max up to 0 in the
config by the way) and a list of "search file for ... (.. not_asked,
.. asked, .. done, .. hits, .. results)" lines. The same web interface
shows in the options overnet as disabled.
This must mean that mldonkey is indeed using and searching on Overnet.
