It just finished now, definately faster. I didn't time it properly but you could get a pretty close estimate from my comment timestamps (~31 hrs this time)

How long it take previously? Did you use the cache clearing of the block_log as well?

At least 2 full days on the previous replay, this time I rebuilt steemd with DSKIP_BY_TX_ID=OFF so that may have affected how long it took to replay. And I used the /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches trick
