libbitcoin-server experiences?

[arnuschky]

Hey,

I just stumbled across libbitcoin-server. It's a major rewrite of Obelisk, the server component of libbitcoin. According to the devs, it's supposed to be very fast. https://github.com/libbitcoin/libbitcoin-server

Information is sparse; the wiki is mostly empty and there are few references on the web.

Has anyone used this in anger already?

I tried the latest Libbitcoin-server on OS X Yosemite and ran into the same problem I had with Obelisk on Ubuntu.  Most of the blockchain would download until around block height 300,000 (give or take), it would just stop downloading.  No matter what I tried I couldn't get it to continue on.  FYI, this was on a MacBook Pro Retina 15" with 16GB RAM and 512G SSD.  Maybe you'll have better luck.
