Containers

A Container is a collection of files that will be automatically bundled together in a ZIP file when inserted into Freenet.

At present this is done by the node when the ClientPutComplexDir or ClientPutDiskDir FCP commands are used.

All files under 64kB will be considered for inclusion in the container, which is limited in size to 2MB.

Containers have an advantage for Freesites, because when you load a page you automatically load all the other files that were in the container with it. This means that either the Freesite loads in its entirety, or it doesn't load at all. This greatly reduces the number of keys required to insert a given freesite.
