Still waiting for my node to sync the blockchain … might take weeks if it keeps going with this slow pace.

Th first 75% synced within one day. I guess it’s now syncing all the inscriptions crap 💩

Start9 question:

The syncing of bitcoin core seemed to run pretty fast up until around 75%. Now it’s extremely slow. Like 3 % in 24h slow. Sometimes it even times out and tries to reconnect.

Logs are not containing any problems. They only show new blocks one after another. But at a very slow pace.

Setup:
- intel core2duo p8700
- 8gb of ddr3 ram 1333mhz
- 2tb ssd

The blocks it seems to struggle with are from 2023. I wonder if that might have to do with ordinals being introduced and bigger blocks?
