Title: eth wallet (mist) and cpu load Post by: vlom on March 03, 2016, 09:48:34 PM i know, an other eth topic....
but the problem is. every time i synch my eth-wallet (mist) the fans of my macbook start because of this: http://s28.postimg.org/n9d3xkp55/Bildschirmfoto_2016_03_03_um_22_44_19.png (http://postimage.org/) geth is doing this. does anybody know why this wallet behaves like that during the sync? edit: i nearly can't touch my mba while im am typing this.

Are you running geth in the background? I think mist comes with an ethereum node that mines to your local wallet. Need to do the miner.stop command Im on linux so fuck knows Title: Re: eth wallet (mist) and cpu load Post by: vlom on March 03, 2016, 09:54:35 PM yes geth is running according to Activity Monitor. but i only started the wallet.
after quitting geth the wallet stops synchronising. Title: Re: eth wallet (mist) and cpu load Post by: Sark on March 03, 2016, 09:58:54 PM Its validating the blockchain, it takes a lot of processing power if you have a lot of blocks to validate. Once it gets caught up to the current block, its not a big deal.
Eventually there will be a light client so that people will not have to run a full node. Title: Re: eth wallet (mist) and cpu load Post by: vlom on March 03, 2016, 10:07:33 PM well, i used a lot of wallets, e.g. btc, doge, ltc. but none of them did this.
Quote if you have a lot of blocks to validate. yes i have to. i did not use this wallet for more than a month. just wanted to check how many coins i own. Title: Re: eth wallet (mist) and cpu load Post by: BitcoinNewsMagazine on March 03, 2016, 10:22:59 PM Using latest Mist 1.3.5 for Homestead with geth running, cpu use is minimal on Windows, no problems so far. The notes at https://github.com/ethereum/mist/releases/ say that eth isn't bundled on OSX with the Ethereum-Wallet, but that you can start an eth node before starting Mist, and the wallet will connect to it. geth is written in Go and eth is C++ right? Can you use geth and eth interchangeably on a MacBook?
