Thanks for the answer.

I still am lost as to why all my connections are backed off. I have noticed that shutting
down everything but freenet makes the problem less. At least for a couple of hours after
start up. My CPU usage is at 100% all the time currently, so i think that it might be
because my node just doesn't comprehend what is being asked of it fast enough and
therefore it backs the peers off. This in turn creates the state where all the peers are
backed off and thus no place to rout through, something very weird begins to happen after
that, i am still looking for any correlation between what i've been doing and the node's
performance.
