latest relay list data from api

Add IPv4 address column to output table
- Added IPv4 endpoint address as a new column in the results table - Adjusted column formatting to accommodate the new 15-character wide column - Makes it easier to see which IP addresses correspond to each relay

Author	SHA1	Message	Date
sneak	410cc7874d	latest relay list data from api	2025-07-14 06:44:52 -07:00
sneak	64101b1dfd	Add IPv4 address column to output table - Added IPv4 endpoint address as a new column in the results table - Adjusted column formatting to accommodate the new 15-character wide column - Makes it easier to see which IP addresses correspond to each relay	2025-07-14 05:40:09 -07:00
sneak	7652472953	Revert all timing and worker optimizations to fix broken measurements - Restored original timeout values: - Liveness check: 3 seconds - Latency measurement: 10 seconds - Restored original ping settings: - Count: 5 pings - Interval: 1 second - Restored original worker counts: - Liveness workers: 20 - Latency workers: 30 The aggressive optimizations were causing many false negatives in liveness checks and zero latency readings. The original conservative values ensure reliable measurements even if slower.	2025-07-14 05:35:45 -07:00
sneak	463a0a6cd5	Fix broken latency measurements with more conservative optimizations - Increased ping interval to 500ms (was too aggressive at 200ms) - Set reasonable timeouts: 2s for liveness, 5s for latency - Reduced workers to 40/60 (from 50/100) to avoid overwhelming network - Kept reduction from 5 to 3 pings for modest speed improvement The previous 200ms interval was causing the ping library to return 0 latency for all measurements, making results meaningless.	2025-07-14 05:32:35 -07:00
sneak	df3c6c6a0e	Optimize latency checks for significantly faster performance - Reduced ping interval from 1s to 200ms (5x faster per relay) - Reduced ping count from 5 to 3 (still reliable, but faster) - Increased latency workers from 30 to 100 (3.3x more parallelism) - Increased liveness workers from 20 to 50 (2.5x more parallelism) - Reduced timeouts: liveness from 3s to 1s, latency from 10s to 3s - Expected speedup: ~10x faster overall execution time	2025-07-14 05:30:27 -07:00
sneak	0fe71520c5	Fix zero latency bug by validating ping statistics - Added validation to detect and handle invalid zero latency measurements - When MinRtt is 0 but packets were received, fall back to AvgRtt - Added -debug flag to help diagnose ping statistics issues - Added debug logging to show raw ping statistics for zero latency cases - Prevents impossible 0s latency readings for remote servers	2025-07-14 05:22:05 -07:00
sneak	93e478755e	Fix compile issue and add -force flag to bypass VPN check - Updated golang.org/x/net dependency to fix linking error with syscall.recvmsg - Added -force flag to allow running the tool while connected to VPN - Fixed linter errors: replaced deprecated ioutil with io/os, added error handling - Added test, fmt, and lint targets to Makefile	2025-07-14 05:16:24 -07:00
