-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 In this EXPERIMENTAL patch, we abolish the screamingly idiotic behaviour where only the FIST node that connects AT BOOT gets issued a PushGetBlocks. We replace it with a 'promiscuous' approach, where any peer that issues 'version' gets asked immediately to supply a candidate block. Interestingly, initial observations suggest that this has only a very small effect on the rate of 'catching up' for a trb node: on account of the fact that the overwhelming majority of PRB nodes simply refuse to throw us blocks under any pretext. I.e. most of what connects may as well be DDOS traffic for all of the good that it does. As trinque wrote, 'they all insult malleus' and get dropped. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBCgAGBQJaPr7GAAoJELmCKKABq//HAxcIALJe+3igpAh5h1u2OqDHDCNd BtezA0udoGrSBsJvmJbuwU7gyOL98TNaw2Wgf4HZCh2I8AsXyvT2dPjTBzESLLNo TZJWiZYV2XJrdDy24Psm/G7HdG5ONhasvYcyXrvaeEOUetjFGrVbERNc16OmO0Qa lv08/x2zNhqyLMWzW1490OkDYlNq0wcKlC8KRKNAgBi3aRTB1HQDvodcBL93zZ53 FpvNDKV3RSgsrgNsNI8P9E1+hADcJ6zBiaU4zI6iI52u872k44xEmoiNEnltqIXn YNR/m2hDpUk3LxN5bLC04P1KsqcH1XclEnm7emGDsx9uVgM+i050Xy05ZS+WAIs= =dVnF -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
