alinia Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Hi,I am using uTorrent for some years now and I never saw my DHT node count above 400. After finding out what DHTs are, I suspected there must be more nodes involved in an instance of a DHT. So my question is while bootstrapping a node does it join a single global instance of a DHT or it may join a local DHT with a few nodes? Do we have only one DHT instance out there which everyone connects to it or there are many isolated islands of DHTs?Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreadWingKnight Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 Global instance.The nodes you see in your status bar are your immediate neighbors. It does NOT show a count beyond the first hop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
