Making Freenet Find Stuff Faster

Sanity writes "Many probably saw the recent announcement of Freenet 0.5.2. This release represented a vast amount of work - primarily in reducing Freenet's CPU and memory requirements. However, streamlining Freenet's current functionality isn't all we've been working on. I just finished an article that describes the most fundamental improvement to Freenet's core algorithm since its original design over three years ago, it is called "Next Generation Routing" and has the potential to dramatically increase the speed with which Freenet retrieves information. It could even make Freenet faster than the World Wide Web in many circumstances, all without compromizing anonymity and while remaining immune to the /. effect."

    I just heard some sad news on talk radio - Horror/Sci Fi writer Stephen King was found dead in his Maine home this morning. There weren't any more details.

  14. karma whoring ? by BlueTrin · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I did not know what was called the "/. effect". That may seem stupid but I am not used to that /. vocabulary. I searched on google and found a page which gave a short explanation and the link I copied, so as it was one of the first posts which mentionned the "/. effect" I posted the link and the explanation so people who would read the previous post would have an explanation of the "/. effect" attached with one the first posts mentionning it.

    Caring about simple things like this can be associated to karma whoring ... that's kinda interesting.

    So next time, I should say something which promotes Linux and OSx while being sarcastic against Microsoft and RIAA. Then I should make sure to post it not in reply to a comment, but as a reply to the story itself and in the first posts. Finally I would check that the post length would be something about 60-100 lines and full of complicated words. Now that would be karma whoring. Not that I care about numbers in front of a chunk of text but more about how you perceived my post.
