congrats trap_jaw--hope all your work to help the efficiency of gnutella is appreciated.

Re too many ultrapeers, a few quick checks yesterday showed better results connected to 3 hosts as a legitimate leaf than when connected to 32 hosts as a "false leaf." (by disabling Ultrapeer when connected initially as ultrapeer).

et voilą--how are you able to maintain a connection as an Ultrapeer? You're on OSX and a router, right? Every time I try to connect as an Ultrapeer, the hosts build up to ~40-50, and when 10 or more can't resolve the IP within 30 seconds, I lose all connections and internet access. I'd hoped this was a java problem, but looks like Acq users still have "router saturation"

Maybe if LW would add Ultrapeers slowly enough for the DNS lookups?
