RE: Slow to sync? This tiny config trick should speed up your initial sync immensely when trying to CPU mine Steem on Windows

thanks for responding. ok tried exactly what you mentioned but still pretty much stuck around 3.56mio block slow moving. perhaps it's the current state of the blockchain or something i've not done right. will wait for another 24 hours to see before throwing in the towel

    I am sorry to hear it has not helped your particular situation.

    What is your current download speed (can you do a speed test and report back?), CPU, RAM specs?

    It definitely 100% helped my issue removing that 'account_history' parameter from the config file. You are definitely using a custom config file etc (sorry, just asking the typical troubleshooting questions)?


    Also, did you try DL the blockchain first from e.g http://www.steemitup.eu/ as per: http://steemit.com/steem/@r3b37/steem-mining-for-windows-update-1
