Title: Core Command Line Functions Post by: BlindMayorBitcorn on July 25, 2016, 09:45:33 PM So I've just started running Core.
Can anybody give me/us a rundown of the command line flags/functions? I don't plan to poke about much, but I'm curious: I see nothing. Hey is Core supposed to take hours and hours to sync with the network? My datacenter's in my other pants. You're downloading and verifying every transaction that has happened in Bitcoin, ever. About the size of two blu-ray movies now. If you have a decent amount of ram on the system... try increasing your dbcache to speed up verification. -dbcache=<n> say n = 2500, would allow the process to use 2.5GB of ram vs the default of 100MB. You can explain it to me, but you can't understand it for me. This is what makes learning new things so difficult. :-[ Thanks in advance!
