Do you see a noticeable difference in resource consumption with the fast stake code?

Do you see a noticeable difference in resource consumption with the fast stake code?

There is no difference in resource consumption, according to my tests cpu and memory usage almost exactly the same as with old staking code.

Hope it's fixed now - https://github.com/noise23/Truckcoin/commit/48b843420dea02587bcac4ea4da18e57e5f47b93
But i can't test - have no hardware to build for mac, could you please try again?

[bumbacoin]

that code change fixed it here's a freshly compiled OSX qt.

crashed on first start up, ran on second.
irc crashed it once (so far)

am downloading chain to further test, but it might take me a few days . (my internet is far from 1337)
heh so if anyone else feels like giving it a run here it is

or
https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B5j8d4FSc7drRHFoM29KTVQ4Z3c


.edit
succesfully synced with the bootstrap. tried to withdraw from bittrex but they seem to be lagging?

withdrew from cryptopia - success !!
deposited to cryptopia - success !!

note. the popup/notification to show incoming tx displayed the TRK logo with a circle/cross through it.



anyone excited about donating for my efforts please find an address here

Wallet 0.9.8.8 for Raspberry Pi added http://downloads.truckcoin.net/Truckcoin-qt-v0.9.8.8-arm-pi.tar.gz

[eyeknock]

this coin is calling my attention, also i just noticed that the wallet v0.9.8.8 release have now good improvements, i will take a look at this coin in the next weeks, but i think that i will start to invest some BTC on it, looks good and promising.

WHAT'S The IDEAL BLOCK SIZE  For Getting Best Stake?

2000 TRK

i was going to ask the same, good to know that the block size dont need to be so big

btw why the irc is so quiet?

Can someone point me to the bootstrap?

although i've noticed that when it's been opened recently then it's much quicker ..
is it related to how far behind the current time the last block is ?

i've tried -checkblocks and it didnt seem to effect it much

Unfortunately I don't have a mac to check it but looks like some local problem.
Average load time on my windows and linux machines is about 10 seconds.

i've just re-opened it for the first time since my last post.. took 9 minutes

09/10/2015 14:03:04 Loading block index...
09/10/2015 14:12:32 LoadBlockIndex(): hashBestChain=a809ba60331a9a17582a  height=456277  trust=1027480714806352  date=07/10/2015 08:26:50

then it was about 2100 blocks behind.

//
just noticed i didnt detail how much quicker .

although i've noticed that when it's been opened recently then it's much quicker ..

but when i reopened truckcoin immediately after closing it took maybe 1 minute tops.

--
i'll try it with a differnt OS install. but that' s the most i can do i think.

I wonder if the wallet is safe.

Antivirus found the Bitcoin Miner in the wallet - of course it's there, it's a crypto coin wallet
Safe to use.

btw, found the bug affecting staking in v0.9.8.8, will post the updated binary soon.
