Zimstake Bootstrap.dat
bootstrap.datbootstrap.dat allows a new Zimstake client (not synced) to rapidly import the initial blocks from a
local file instead of slowly downloading blocks from random peers. This significantly reduces the
time it takes to get a client synced with the current blockchain.
Simply having bootstrap.dat in Zimstake's expected data directory will make your initial block sync
much faster. The import process can be even faster if you use the -dbcache=1000 command line
parameter which uses an additional 1GB of RAM for the database index cache.
Regardless of your operating system, use the following steps to make use of the bootstrap.dat file:
1. Download the bootstrap.dat.
2. Move it into the Zimstake datadir. "%appdata%/zimstake" / "~/.zimstake"
3. Load the windows client using "zimstake-qt.exe -dbcache=1000" or *nix "zimstaked -dbcache=1000"
4. Delete bootstrap.dat.old if you want to recover some storage space.
