New test release

This release reduces memory usage and blockchain file size by optimizing storage of the outputs table. While the reduction is somewhat modest, it will be more significant with pruning (the pruned data does not include the outputs table).

Please test, especially if you have a smaller memory configuration. Very small memory configurations won't work with this, but if you have something that has been barely able to run the deemon previously, this should improve your performance quite a bit.

The next step after this is pruning, so if any issues arise here I would like to address them before releasing the pruning support.

Instructions:

1. Copy your blockchain.bin file to another location as a backup. This version will convert the blockchain file to a new format and you won't able to downgrade to the released code with the upgraded blockchain file.

2.

git clone https://github.com/iamsmooth/aeon bcmreduce
cd bcmreduce
git checkout bcmemreduce
make etc.

3. Start node. You should get a message at startup about the blockchain being converted. You can ignore any debug messages about empty outputs and such.

4. Exit node to save the converted blockchain

5. Start node again with new blockchain

Report any issues (or even if no issues)

Thanks for testing!

Thanks for testing!

compiling, starting, converting and exiting works for me.
will run it for a while and report any issues.

Really appreciate the frequent updates and transparency of the dev on this thread.

Really appreciate the frequent updates and transparency of the dev on this thread.

Yes, that is appreciated. Marketcap is super low, and I think in the long run this will do very well for us. Patience does pay off.

I know some other traders that also agree with me on this one that have good taste.

Was there some discussion of branding changes in the past? Heard some mention of it.

Yes it has been discussed, and might be considered again, especially once the coin is brought up to a more mature state, but is not an immediate priority.

And welcome to the thread CryptoClub.

Good luck, smooth.

Perfect time to invest in AEON.

Well done Smooth!


Lots of new blood coming. And its just the beginning...  Hero member dev, people with tech background, old forum members, super cheap price after drama... Couldn't resist again... Seriously... 7 millions coins out there and trading at 4k... Its a robbery...

ROFL.

Nice one

blockchain converted successfully, no issue relaunching daemon.
New blockchain.bin file reduced ~13%

I see a reduction in both the virtual and resident memory, but I'm not sure if I'm looking at the correct metrics:

v0.9.1.1       virt: 6548M  res: 5157M
bcmreduce   virt: 5680M  res: 4650M

Looks like reasonable numbers. It is still an ongoing work item for me to figure out what it is doing with all that memory, since there isn't enough data to fill it. My hope is that the numbers are a bit misleading and a good chunk of the allocated memory is just unused. That wold give a better chance to work in less memory than the numbers indicate once pruning is enabled. In any case this is a temporary solution until we move to a database.

Please continue to report testing results and any issues. But it looks so far like no issues. Hopefully....

Hi bro! I'm in 4th place in the Top 50 AEON balanses in Bittrex. Low price - the time to buy! While merges AEON only number one in the top 50, we are buying...

about http://52.8.47.33:8080 last night failure.
i looked into the logs and i decided to compensate the miner victim of the failure.
i took the last payment (14/8/2015 00:53:33) to identify miner.
i estimate the loss at three blocks (~12 hours, after the miners should be aware the pool is down)

these miners will receive:
WmthnC.....ZN         
1,17*3=3.51 aeon
         
WmtVTe.....aw         
24,81*3=74.43 aeon
         
WmtNYj.....7C         
1,14*3=3.42 aeon
         
WmtX4D.....Mz         
3,4*3=10.2 aeon
         
Wmt1AW.....2y         
6,54*3=19.62 aeon
         
WmtcqM.....zm         
1,3*3=3.9 aeon

My personal apologies for the inconvenience.

http://52.8.47.33:8080 is now ready to use safely. (#595803 will be orphaned because the daemon wasn't synchronized while it was found.)

All the maintenance works were made. i will not plan to do anything else. (load average of ~0.05)
