so while it did work, it's sad for that PoS loss.
Use reservebalance as I outlined a couple of posts ago. I use it to effectively enable and disable PoS. If you're holding most or all of your coins you don't need to keep PoS active constantly anyway. (I know it's not nearly as elegant as coin control, but it's something that you can do right now.)

Anything above your actual balance will stop all PoS minting. You can do a partial reserve too, like reservebalance=7500 if you have a 10000 GRW balance. I presume, but I'm not sure, that the client will choose the most eligble blocks when trying to mint with a partly reserved balance.

Tranz commented on that earlier tonight. While I already combined my coins into bigger blocks, this could be helpful in the future. @Tokyo, Tranz was talking about a value between 1/2 and 3/4 of your coins for the reservebalance.

Cool. Thanks guys, I was able to use reserve balance to move some coins around and calm down the CPU. Now I can actually use the wallet.
It would be nice to release a client with coin-control.

What's the current market cap and number of coins out there? How likely is it that we'll hit the 2B hard-coded coin cap? Thanks for the info ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) It's currently at 27,440,270 million coins, so it's a very long way off the hard cap.

that's exactly what I did, on the command line sent some out and the responsiveness came back.
Just so people know, this is "normal" behaviour since the wallet uses CPU power to find PoS blocks... the problem is that when you have a lot (I don't know the threshold here, might depend on your CPU speed) of blocks trying to stake at the same time, the CPU usage goes bananas! maybe a faster CPU would help, so transferring coins out did the trick because I killed the coinage in doing so (stop the PoS minting process). in other words I lost the stakes for those mature coins by sending them out.
It was tried on a really fast i7 with 16 GB RAM, still the same, so I don't think it is due to CPU speed, or that you will be able to get it working with more speed. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Just a hunch.

That's what I thought, the wallet will take maximum CPU power available so it won't make a difference... the only way for now to get a responsive client with a lot of blocks is to set reservebalance. coin control would be another way of doing it but it's not implemented yet thanks for sharing

I had the thought to add coin control and it was also suggested by another member here , will include that on the next major update.

Would you like to use the same logo I created for the site? I can change the background colour if preferred? ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fgrowthco.in%2Flogo.png&t=665&c=mp6GV4itCDQWBQ) As the wallet uses different colours, can do another in blue? ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fgrowthco.in%2Fminecolor.png&t=665&c=UWXo0Yg55eA01w) Just thought I'd ask seeing as a wallet update is on the cards.

I vote for changing the logo in the client, I like this new logo. And 2 colors like in the current wallet would be nice too ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Not heard of gridcoin before, just done a quick search and the logo on their site is different.
Quick look on coinmarketcap too, and none look similar either.

Yeah, I was thinking of this icon, dunno why I thought it was similar, must have been the 'G'. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.gridcoin.us%2Fimages%2Fgridcoinlogo.png&t=665&c=bOdTWM1FX01f2A)
