SAFE Network Client Testing Commences

Remember everyone, this data will all get dropped so don’t spend too much time in crafting stunning sites and youtube clones right now :wink: Please play and save your sites/data etc. locally as well to upload again when we restart in a few days. Restarts will only take a short time (few minutes) and we will announce them on the forum.

Just the same, unzip it and run the apps, they are cross platform so jsut select linux in download section and off you go :wink:

Sometimes loading a website takes about 10 seconds or more. Since I can’t imagine how this could be connection latency problem with such few hops, is it possible that it’s either a bottleneck in the code somewhere, or perhaps GET request loss (and a retry after time-out) due to congestion or a bug? Or just some extremely slow vaults that take several seconds to route a chunk?

Well it isn’t certainly working on my machine. See this post. SAFE Network Client Testing Commences - #45 by anon81773980

At the moment it is likely the reconstruction of data as well as traffic, We will be finding out all this during the coming days, but nothing is profiled at all and this is all literally compile and release, we did very little testing and especially not for speed just yet. Speed will be cool though and should get very fast.

Wooo!

First chapter of the book I’ll be releasing on SAFE for Ptp trials once all is in place.

FUN.

I did almost accidentally try and upload my whole hardrive when i double-clicked in the APP though (another to report).

This is all very exciting.

Okay cool, what download section? Where? I mean thanks for the help but I think I’m missing some navagational instructions or something.

Dude, there is a link in OP post.

Can you see the launcher if you type ls and if you can what does file safe_launcher say as output?

Pages load very very slow. Is this completely expected due to being a test or should it be like when under in production?

Yes, I do see it. Here’s the output.

safe_launcher: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.24, BuildID[sha1]=320b60647cb5753647347408ed42b6984900f274, stripped

For everyone using Firefox, there is a great addon called foxyproxy, which let’s you add different proxies for URL patterns, so you don’t have to manually switch between proxies to surf the safenet pages and the old web.

I’ll write a HowTo once i finished my delicous sushi :smiley:

And congratulations to the team, fantastic job.

Pages load within seconds for me.

Okay found it. Yeah that was a bit weird.

Yes it will be very slow right now, I am not even sure it’s all running in release mode. The crypto stuff for instance is 160 times slower in debug. So expect slllooowww for right now whilst logs etc. are gathered.

I have the same, it’s expected. They hardly optimized for speed yet.

Edit: Ninja’d

Awesome.

Yip sorry :slight_smile:

FYI One of the TODO is refactor crust internals, it currently uses threads and inner threads to manage sockets. IT should be using epoll kpoll etc. and there is a lib for that now that is cross platform mio So this is a huge increase in performance and will be in place soon I hope.
