Summary
ProbeLab's Optimistic Provide, published in IEEE INFOCOM 2024 and shipped in Kubo 0.39.0, cuts IPFS Amino DHT content publishing from over 13 seconds to under 1 second. The technique stores provider records immediately during the DHT walk by estimating network size from routing table refreshes, terminating early when the 20 closest peers are likely found, and finishing remaining PUTs in the background — cutting network overhead by 40%.
