- maxtotalconnections = maximum number of total full connections (incoming + outgoing) the node will allow. Default 200 as it was. - maxbootstrapconnections = number of additional (to total) connection that will act in bootstrap mode, closing after sending the list of addresses. Default 20 as it was. - maxaddrperstreamsend = initial address list maximum size, per participating stream. Default 500. Child streams get half. The response is chunked into pieces of max. 1000 addresses as that's the protocol limit.
PyBitmessage
Bitmessage is a P2P communications protocol used to send encrypted messages to another person or to many subscribers. It is decentralized and trustless, meaning that you need-not inherently trust any entities like root certificate authorities. It uses strong authentication, which means that the sender of a message cannot be spoofed, and it aims to hide "non-content" data, like the sender and receiver of messages, from passive eavesdroppers like those running warrantless wiretapping programs.
Development
Bitmessage is a collaborative project. You are welcome to submit pull requests although if you plan to put a non-trivial amount of work into coding new features, it is recommended that you first solicit feedback on the DevTalk pseudo-mailing list: BM-2D9QKN4teYRvoq2fyzpiftPh9WP9qggtzh
