Title: Chia creation plots Post by: devil2man on September 14, 2021, 07:26:52 PM i am creating my first plots on chia but it has been going on for about 10 hours already, is there a way to speed it up? change any settings before starting? more core / threat or more ram? I'm already doing the temporary on ssd and plots on hard disk
Title: Re: Chia creation plots Post by: flip4flop on September 14, 2021, 09:34:16 PM Yes, the old way of plotting was put to bed a few months ago. Take a look at MadMax it can cut your plotting time down to around an hour or less depending on your system's specs. You can find the Github below and there is a ton of documentation there to assist in getting it set up quickly. I used it when I need to replot all my old plots to join a pool and it was amazing how fast it was complete.

Title: Re: Chia creation plots Post by: flip4flop on September 15, 2021, 10:07:28 PM No worries it really cut down on time but it caused the network to explode as everyone was able to plot in well under 1 hour. Especially when pool plotting was released MadMax was released about the same time. If it was not it would have taken large farms a very long time to replot everything to get the correct plots to be able to pool. Instead, they were able to accomplish this in days.
