How time flies, I wouldn't set it up with less than 2gb of memory the way things are currently.

Good to know swap will be enough. :) If your spilling over into your swap, the whole machine will grind to snail pace. Title: Re: Bitcoind ram consumption Post by: grue on October 18, 2013, 06:24:02 PM Thanks! Good to know swap will be enough. :) keep in mind that as the bitcoind instance runs longer, the ram usage will increase. the figures I gave were for 24 hours.Title: Re: Bitcoind ram consumption Post by: imrer on October 18, 2013, 10:17:25 PM Hmmm. Does online wallets provide same features as bitcoind? (especially if it's possible to check if incoming payment to unique adress has arrived -> so I could build it into automatic system in my site)
Title: Re: Bitcoind ram consumption Post by: imrer on October 18, 2013, 10:57:14 PM Why do you think so? How could that be more hackable in comparison to local bitcoind?

If you run a bitcoind property it can be incredibly difficult to hack and empty all your coins. A web wallet all you need is a username and password. If you get into the web site it can be extremely easy to find those things. With a bitcoind you can set a lot of parameters both in the bitcoind and OS itself to protect it. I am not going to go into detail because I don't have time to write it all out. If you want to pay me I can it setup and make it very difficult to be hacked. |
