- IConnectedAddresses remembers which address each host's last connection reached, set in
SafeHttpHandlerFactory's connect callback. That is once per pooled connection, with no
second DNS lookup, and the address is never stored.
- IGeoLocator / DbIpLocator reads the offline DB-IP Lite city and ASN databases (MaxMind
.mmdb, via MaxMind.Db). It maps memory, swaps to new files within ten minutes, rounds
coordinates to one decimal, never looks up a private address, and answers nothing
when the files are missing. CdnNetworks names the CDNs whose edge addresses say nothing
about where a server is.
- deploy/max/geo-update.sh fetches this or last month's databases, checks them and swaps
them in atomically. The privapub-geo timer runs it monthly as www-data, and setup.sh
installs the directory, the script, the units and a first download.
Describing servers will use these in M8.

- HttpScope (AsyncLocal) tags each outbound request with a purpose and a trigger:
- purpose is set by the caller: actor, key, object, webfinger, context, nodeinfo;
- trigger is set by the job kind, by "verify" during inbox verification, or defaults
to "request".
- FederationHttp records every JSON, media and stream fetch: status, time, bytes, hops,
and an outcome of ok, refused or failed, with a reason: disallowed, remembered,
bad-redirect, too-many-redirects, content-type, too-large, bad-json, private-address,
timeout, network, or the status. A fetch a reader caused (trigger "request") is only
counted per server per day.
- Link previews record a 'preview' event: card, no-card or failed.
- The media proxy counts cache hits.
- TrafficMeter counts the client API per endpoint group, method and status class. It
counts our served documents (actor, outbox, collection, object, activity, licence,
webfinger, nodeinfo) by kind, status and whether signed, per day and never per server,
and never names a circle's collections.
