Does anyone know why max_outgoing_connections is 8?
lapidary 2017-01-15 17:33:09
just a default setting

I know that , But I was wondering if there was any reason it was reduced from 15?

I don't remember it beeing that high in the 4 years I have been using bitcoin

My guess is fewer clients are needed for fining seeds. outgoing likely will not help seed others.

lapidary: there is an old svn commit from 2010
lapidary 2017-01-15 17:40:54
ah; well, that predates me :-)

there is certainly some odd blocks on testnet
grubles 2017-01-15 17:43:26
some take like 6 seconds to validate
grubles 2017-01-15 17:43:55
but then you ramp up to validating 200 a second
