orbiter 5892fff51f introduction of dht-burst modes: this can expand the number of target peers in some cases where a better heuristic is needed. The problematic cases are either when a muti-word search is made (still a hard case for our term-oriented DHT) or when a network operator wants that all robinson peers are asked. We therefore introduced two new network steering values that switch on more peers during the peer selection. Because the number of peers can now be very large, the number of maximum httpc connections was also increased.
Please see new coments in yacy.network.freeworld.unit for details of the new DHT selection methods.
The number of maximum peers is now not fixed to a specific number but may increase with
- the partition exponent
- the number of redundant peers
- the robinson burst percentage
- the multiword burst percentage
The maximum can then be the number of senior peers (all visible peers).
