net.i2p.router.peermanager (Javadocs [I2P+ 2.11.0+]

Class Summary
Class	Description
CapacityCalculator	Estimate how many of our tunnels the peer can join per hour.
DBHistory	History of NetDb related activities (lookups, replies, stores, etc)
IntegrationCalculator	Determine how well integrated a peer is - how likely they will be useful to us if we are trying to get further connected.
InverseCapacityComparator	Order profiles by their capacity, but backwards (highest capacity / value first).
PeerManager	Tracks peer capabilities and maintains performance statistics for router peers.
PeerManagerFacadeImpl	Base implementation that has simple algorithms and periodically saves state
PeerProfile	Copied from http://www.i2p2.i2p/how_peerselection.html See also main() below for additional commentary by zzz.
PeerSelectionCriteria	Defines the criteria for selecting a set of peers for use when searching the PeerManager Only used by PeerTestJob, which may not have a point.
PeerTestJob	Periodically tests selected peers to gather real-time performance data and update peer profiles.
ProfileManagerImpl	Methods to update profiles.
ProfileOrganizer	Categorizes peers into performance tiers based on historical metrics.
ProfilePersistenceHelper	Write profiles to disk at shutdown, read at startup.
SpeedCalculator	Quantify how fast the peer is - how fast they respond to our requests, how fast they pass messages on, etc.
SpeedComparator	Order profiles by their speed (lowest first).
TunnelHistory	Tunnel related history information

Package net.i2p.router.peermanager Description

Peer management, profiling, and capacity calculation for I2P network optimization.

This package provides comprehensive peer management functionality that tracks, evaluates, and optimizes interactions with other I2P routers. The peer manager maintains detailed profiles of network peers, calculates their capacity and reliability, and makes intelligent decisions about which peers to use for various operations.

Key Components:

PeerManager - Main peer management and coordination
PeerProfile - Detailed peer information and statistics
ProfileManager - Manages peer profile data and lifecycle
ProfileOrganizer - Organizes and categorizes peer profiles
CapacityCalculator - Calculates peer capacity and capabilities
SpeedCalculator - Evaluates peer speed and performance
IntegrationCalculator - Assesses peer integration quality
PeerSelectionCriteria - Defines criteria for peer selection
PeerTestJob - Tests peer connectivity and performance
DBHistory - Tracks peer database interaction history
TunnelHistory - Records peer tunnel participation history

Main Functionality:

Peer profiling and reputation tracking
Capacity and performance calculation
Peer selection and recommendation
Network topology optimization
Peer testing and validation
Historical data management
Performance metrics collection
Integration quality assessment

Usage Notes:

Essential for efficient network routing
Provides data for intelligent peer selection
Maintains long-term peer performance history
Integrates with tunnel building and routing decisions
