V12 Testing Thread

Mr.Ignore, tell me then why cant blockchain be downloaded at full speed if its not a protocol flaw.

He said 8 connections, if they all reseed at 10 KB/s ofc it wont download at more than 80 KB/s.

I think you're just a mislead boy licking ass of members with "Developer" under their name.
Hi there,

Actually, there is no need for everyone to get their panties in a bunch ;) This is a good question. Now, I'm not a programmer, but I think the problem is in the structure and theory behind a distributed network, and wanting to keep it that way. If we create a centralized source for people to download, it could be corrupted, accidentally or maliciously. And I believe the limit to 8 connections is simply to keep from overloading or ddos'ing the network, so that nobody can overwhelm the network with downloads. The solution we're striving toward is to create a strong network that protects the chain and serves a cropped version of the blockchain that is relevant to light wallets or regular users. This way, less will have to be downloaded (hopefully next project) while still having a strong network and protected blockchain.

So that's why you won't have anyone create a centralized repository for the blockchain - unless things get really bad for some reason. And we definitely don't want full node wallets syncing to any centralized "authority" as that breaks down the trustless system at it's core. Did that explain the problem? If not, sorry for interrupting.

Thank you for the mature reply. It was indeed just some kind of hitch with dashd as after restart it synced quite fast.

Looking forward to using v12 on mainnet.

Oops, seems I misunderstood again :) Well, I'll leave it here in case it's helpful to someone :)

installed latest, still having a lengthy time getting masternodes

there was someone occupying the mnlist with a large number of invalid entries IIRC
they had multiple different txs running on same IP:pORT, that should not be possible?
or maybe they just dont bandwidth/resources to run so many MNs and it's hurting us because we are so likely to use it for mn related things?

lots of guesses...
 
mn syncing is heavy CPU both client and node:

Code:
9905 xxxxx     20   0 1900.7m 280.6m 108.9  1.2   1:07.97 S dash-qt
9567 xxxxx     20   0 1395.9m 322.7m  93.0  1.3   3:25.54 S dashd
9546 xxxxx     20   0 1771.9m 775.3m  87.4  3.2   6:58.68 S dashd
9470 xxxxx     20   0 2155.9m 1.070g  17.0  4.5  10:20.65 S dashd
9536 xxxxx     20   0 1523.9m 409.9m   3.7  1.7   3:56.38 S dashd

This could be related to the spam that still exists...
 
v0.12.0.43-5e9fbab
Windows 64bit

low number of connections when trying to sync from scratch which makes syncing a bit slow. I'm getting something like 4 connections top.

edit 1 : okay, two of my six wallets reached the "synchronising masternodes" part now and both are on different blocks (82994 and 82995)
so i guess we could use some checkpoints again
edit 2 : more wallets arriving at block 82995 after sync from scratch
edit 3 : synchronising masternodes & winners & budgets sure seems to take a lot of time
edit 4 : i will try this again after work..

i resync'd from scratch on one node (mn0) and boostrapped (2015-08-12) from https://github.com/UdjinM6/dash-bootstrap (mn1)

i imported priv key, masternode count is empty (not sync'd?) but i show up in masternodelist (the only one)
for the one off bootstrap i see 3 other MNs, havent imported privkey to wallet yet.

Code:
$ ~/opt/dash-test/bin/dash-cli -datadir=/local/dash-testnet/dash-mn0/ getblockchaininfo
{
    "chain" : "test",
    "blocks" : 83007,

Updated tMN's to v.43 ... were all the budget proposals wiped?

EDIT: No, still there :wink: Though all votes have gone to zero. Please vote on my "smoothie" proposal, it's quite urgent.

Believe it or not, sometimes doing complete deletion and then restart the wallet using -resync -reindex fixes that... seriously

Edit: sorry that should -reindex (I knew it looked wrong)

Your bc is synced, but after that progressbar shows incorrectly when syncing masternodes etc...
This must be fixed, whats the point with this masternode etc sync progressbar anyway?
 
Masternodes does not get to sync, bc is synced (maybe), waited already 15 min, pbar says 15 h behind, also info says zero masternodes, dunno...
