Hi All,
I'm new to the forum. I have picked up a lot of useful information reading over the past few weeks and thank you all for sharing your knowledge.
I'm trying to contribute a full node to the network on my Windows 10 workstation, however I am almost at the end of my rope with the issue I keep having. The problem occurs whether I use bitcoin-qt or bitcoind. It starts downloading and indexing and progressively gets slower. Usually by the time it gets to 1 year and 12 weeks it either gives a fatal error or just stays on 1 year and 12 weeks I assume forever since I end up shutting it down after many hours.
Here is the system information:
Dell Precision Workstation T3610
Intel Xeon CPU E5 3.7Ghz
104GB Installed RAM
Windows 10
Drive C: Two 500GB SSD's operating as RAID 0
Drive J: Two 1TB Velociraptor drives as RAID 0 connected to Megaraid SAS Card
EDIT: Forgot to mention I'm using Bitcoin Core 0.11.1
I have tried installations to Drive C and Drive J with same results. Also have deleted the Bitcoin directory several times, except for wallet and configuration file.
The only high readings I see in Resource Monitor are disk queue length which will sometimes reach almost 4.0 and hard hits which can reach 400 at times. Other than that I don't have a clue. I don't see an option to upload a file (maybe because it's my first post?), so I am providing a Dropbox link to the complete debug.log file in case someone wants to take a look at it. Big file. This particular file was created after I deleted all data and then restarted the application.
