- URGENT: Congestion/flow control (CHANNEL):
+ estimate max bandwidth using bursts and use to for CONGESTION CONTROL!
(and figure out how/where to use this!)
+ calculate current RTT if possible, use that for initial retransmissions
(NOTE: needs us to learn which connection the tunnel uses for the message!)
+ figure out flow control without ACKs (unreliable traffic!)
- HIGH: revisit message buffer, have global buffer instead per-route, but then
make sure it is shared fairly across routes and connections (CORE);
also, do not buffer if the connection is set to unbuffered!
- HIGH: revisit handling of 'unbuffered' traffic! (CHANNEL/TUNNEL)
(need to push down through tunnel into connection selection);
At Tunnel-level, try to create connections that match channel
preferences (buffered/unbuffered) and select connections for
channel traffic that match channel preferences.
- HIGH: revisit handling of 'buffered' traffic: 4 is a rather small buffer; (CHANNEL)
maybe reserve more bits in 'options' to allow for buffer size control?
Or: maybe even better, calculated required buffer size based on latency
and throughput (and available memory)
- HIGH: if we receive BROKEN messages, cut down corresponding PATH (up to the
point of breakage) as well as connection/route (CORE)
- OPTIMIZATION: proper connection evaluation during connection management:
+ PATHS: path desirability score calculations are not done
+ CONNECTION: keep per-connection performance metrics;
in particular, interact with channel (!) to see
if we get ACKs indicating successful payload delivery.
+ TUNNELS:
* when managing connections, distinguish those that
have (recently) had traffic from those that were
never ready (or not recently)
* consider quality of current connection set when deciding
how often to do maintenance
* interact with PEER to drive DHT GET/PUT operations based
on how much we like our connections
- OPTIMIZATION: optimize stopping/restarting DHT search to situations
where we actually need it (i.e. not if we have a direct connection,
or if we already have plenty of good short ones, or maybe even
to take a break if we have some connections and have searched a lot (?)) (PEER)
