High number of banned peers
Posted: 17 Aug 2025 08:21
Hi,
I'm using i2p 2.9.0-0 on a fast machine with a very fast internet connection. Trying to contribute as much routing capacity as possible to the network, besides setting high bandwith limits I adjusted some of the advanced options:
i2np.ntcp.maxConnections=12000
i2np.udp.maxConnections=12000
router.maxParticipatingTunnels=30000
Memory limit is set to "wrapper.java.maxmemory=8192" in wrapper.config.
This results in lots of banned peers, at the moment my router shows about 6000 known and about 16000(!) banned peers. The router's resources are far from being maxed out in terms of bandwith, memory and cpu usage.
Taking a closer look at the banned peers, the router shows that most of them are temporarily banned because they are "slow". Is this intended for some reason? This way my router doesn't accept connections from most known peers on the network.
