Doubling of blockchain management
January 06, 2014, 04:12:03 PM

In my Armory installation, it is maintaining what appears to be a copy of the blockchain at %UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\Armory\databases\leveldb_blkdata as well as %UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin\blocks.
Option-wise, I have "Let Armory run Bitcoin-Qt/bitcoind in the background" and I have left both the install dir and home dir blank. The region beneath the directories defined as "Leave blank to use default datadir (...)" does have the correct \Roaming\Bitcoin directory present.
When I start Armory, files are updated in both directories, I only want to keep one. This is not a complaint about speed or load time, I'm just trying to recover <size of blockchain> bytes by correcting whatever is wrong with my setup. Any suggestions?

Both copies of the blockchain are needed for Armory to work.

Well, I'm glad I didn't delete one of them. I have them each currently at around 16G (total of 32G), is that what I should expect?

Yes, 16GB is about right for today. It will continue to hog more your disk space. Be happy Armory is only hogging disk space instead of RAM like it used to
If you were to delete either the block files or the Armory data base, you would just have to wait awhile for them to be rebuilt.

Currently Armory does duplicate all the blockchain data. But it's because we just did a huge overhaul of the blockchain management system, and it was easiest to do it this way. It will be fairly "easy" to reduce the amount of data managed by Armory and rely on Bitcoin-Qt for bulk blockchain data. We just haven't gotten to that point yet, because we're still ironing out the bugs in the full-duplication version.
Stay tuned.
