point is a home node having 60+ peers is nutty

Well... my goal was to share information with whomever asked for it without abusing the offer. Apparently that's crazy!

it is!

you're probably forwarding TX's to all your peers most of whom probably already received those TX datas from the other 60+peers Their connected to.

and that sir is called resilience by redundancy

The only thing that needs redundancy is the blockchain. Broadcasting the same transaction twice is called inefficiencies.

Welp! Should've told Satoshi heh  Cheesy

Seriously who do you think you noobs are giving engineering lessons to people when you are most clueless about how the system operates.  Roll Eyes

Then go on and explain how broadcasting the same transaction twice increase resilience instead of making pointless post. 

Well first you'll have to explain where do you get the idea that transactions are broadcasted twice?

Sorry I should add this precision: Broadcasting a transaction to a node that has already received this transaction.

In other word, inefficiencies.

Are you aware of exactly how this works? The transaction data is not uploaded to the peers unless they request for it, in which case if they do then it signifies they have not "already received this transaction".
