there are files with 95% of chucks owned by everybody and one or two
chunks owned by one or two clients.
sometime, the client with those rare chunks appears on source list. but
it uploads the chunk to another client (it's logic) but this happy
client is not on your source list ...
why not implementing the following :
if such a client (with the rare chunks) appears, ask him to which
client he has uploaded the wanted chunks recently (and why not
currently). add them to the good sources queue even if max_sources is
reached.
it perhaps needs to extend the protocol ... but if the client dosent
support it and all but these chunks has already been downloaded, it
should be good to add all of its known source for this file to our
source queue (should work if he is currently downloding the file. and
with the credit system, its sources have more chances to get the chunk)
what do you think of that ?
Jo.
sorry for misspelling.
