The irc wasnt very busy last time I checked but its worth a shot for sure.
yep, irc is dead quiet for quite a long now. It may be the way to go.
Few further observations regarding the newest version of the wallet:
- loading of the wallet has improved a lot - now it loads much quicker than the older version.
- once loaded, it runs much slower than the older version and often hangs (not responding), especially if run in parallel with other wallets. I have set of five, six wallets that I run in parallel (for more than two months now) and now KTK wallet is clearly the worst one of all. And it was second best before the update.
- staking works much worse than before, at least for me (many big chunks having more than 10k confirmations). I am regrouping my chunks of coins about every two weeks, but now with this new wallet I get much less coins than before and less regularly although I have top 20 holdings, so there is no problem with having too few coins, neither with their age.
ok. I found out the reason for stacking problems. It was another wallet, PreminePlus, that blocked KTK from getting new coins. Funny enough, in terms of computer resources KTK had way more CPU and RAM, but still was not able to stake. Turning off the other wallet opened the faucet and my minting weight got discharged - got new coins in almost every single block in last 15 minutes.
