We have a suspicion that the high-mem nodes are those that subscribed to gossip for royalties. This testnet is aiming to probe that hypothesis by removing gossip royalties!
The aim here is largely to see if we have avoided such high memory nodes.
After QuicNet blazed itself to the ground, we’re back with a network that Does not encrypt data at nodes. (In order to see how much that contributed to mem-spikes we saw). Derives payment keys from the PeerId key, so restarted nodes should be able to accept payments now. Has more logs Here we’re looking to see How this lack...
Here we’re looking to further test out some client fixes to various timeouts and other issues we’ve applied in the course of the prior testnet. We’ll also be keeping an eye out for “lost nodes” (nodes that start but do not appear to join the network successfully). We’ve removed code to this end, that seems to have...
Another week, another wee testnet. We’re looking to verify various changes we’ve worked on since the last… Most notably the pricing curve has changed, it’s now much more granular (a new price at each step) and stays cheaper for longer. We also have various client improvements to reduce memory when working with larger...
After a successful DialNet we’re looking to test our reworked payment process. Now instead of badly guesstimating costs on the network, we ask each and every node how much they’d like and pay that. (This can be tweaked to avoid bad actors easily enough). As such, every node will receive rewards for PUTs directly! (Note: you...
Over the past weeks we have seen some nodes that do not receive records. On further inspection, it seemed like peers of such nodes didn’t add them to their routing table. In essence this means those nodes aren’t seen as part of the network, but function like clients. When a new node connects to its peers, those peers have to...
Well if it all goes pear 🍐 I blame ⬆️ you lot, all three of you because I have just published an update to #vdash for use with ThePriceIsRightNet (the current #SafeNetwork#testnet).
When last we testnetted, we were checking that we could pay a default price for data.
Now we have some rudimentary price discovery in place, nodes can report a price based upon how much relevant data they have stored, and clients will choose the lowest price that should ensure a majority of nodes will accept the data.
