{{< small-world-scale >}}

In small world networks, the average path length grows logarithmically with the number of nodes,
which is far more efficient than the linear growth typical of regular networks. This means that even
as the network expands to include millions of nodes, the average number of steps required to reach
any other node remains relatively low—a critical feature for scalability. This property is precisely
what allows Freenet to maintain efficient data retrieval, regardless of how large the network
becomes.

The blend of local and long-range connections in small world networks creates a structure that is
both resilient and highly efficient. This pattern has been discovered repeatedly in nature, from
social networks to neural pathways. Freenet leverages this natural efficiency to create a truly
