pybitmessage.class_singleCleaner module¶
The singleCleaner
class is a timer-driven thread that cleans data structures
to free memory, resends messages when a remote node doesn’t respond, and
sends pong messages to keep connections alive if the network isn’t busy.
- It cleans these data structures in memory:
- inventory (moves data to the on-disk sql database)
- inventorySets (clears then reloads data out of sql database)
- It cleans these tables on the disk:
- inventory (clears expired objects)
- pubkeys (clears pubkeys older than 4 weeks old which we have not used personally)
- knownNodes (clears addresses which have not been online for over 3 days)
- It resends messages when there has been no response:
- resends getpubkey messages in 5 days (then 10 days, then 20 days, etc…)
- resends msg messages in 5 days (then 10 days, then 20 days, etc…)
-
lengthOfTimeToHoldOnToAllPubkeys
= 2419200[source]¶ Equals 4 weeks. You could make this longer if you want but making it shorter would not be advisable because there is a very small possibility that it could keep you from obtaining a needed pubkey for a period of time.
