Is it possible to make GNUnet send more noise to other peers. It would be
interesting to add a key in gnunet.conf to set the noise padding rate to
make gnunet replicate more random data. 
I haven't get yet throught the core source code, can you tell me where
(which file and which function) is gnunet generating random noise messages ?
It's probably a call to sendBuffer or appendToBuffer in connection.c but I
can't find the real call. There isn't any log there.

Thanks for help !
Eric.
