Host report...
 
Hmm...

I switched from limewire, and am rather impressed with phex. I have to say.
But i was dissapointed that my queries gave me fewer results, and queries
that gave me plenty of results... were giving me none or very few....

But the passive search, and research features, amongst other things
kept me going.... immediate results were fewer, but left to run overnight phex rocks.....

One odd thing however, and this may explain the reduced result set....
Is that ****ALL the successful downloads (even partials or queues.. i suppose succesful server contacts for downloading) reported being GNUCLEUS 1.6.0.0 which seems odd to me.... it seems im only seeing that small bit of the gnutella network, question is why?

Has anyone experienced this....?
im running phex 0.63 (macphex build)
on osX 10.1.3 with the java update that came out naught 3 days ago

any clues?????

Yeah,
I notice the same behaviour.
Could this have something to do with the clustering behaviour of BS and Lime ?
Perhaps the domination of Gnucleus1600 clients could be that they are in fact Morpheus clients ?

Another behaviour I see is that I get a lot of sends queued, I went back to 046 and noticed that version getting setteled much easier in the network without the sends beeing queued.
And I must say I do like its re-search behaviour alltough that beeing not to good for the network......

Hi...

the reason you might see fewer results is that other clients use differnt and advanced technics to route queries. Unfortunatly some of them are missing in Phex. But I'm trying integrate them sooner or later.

Limewire and Bearshare clients tend to cluster. This is because these clients use there own host caches and other clients have no access to these host caches. They tend to give out mainly IPs of other Limewires/Bearshares. Phex uses public host caches like Gnucleus is doing it. You are still not seeing a much smaller bit of the network. You only tend to have more none Bearshare/Limewire clients in your horizon.
Most of the Gnucleus clients you see are Morpheus clients.

The large send queue is do to a bug in the current Phex version. The next Phex version fixes this and is more stable in the network again.

The research behaivor improved very much since 0.6. It now reacts to different network and content availability situations. This dramaticly reduced the network pollution while still getting good results.
