It sounds like a lot of work what you plan to do to get your witness server up and running, but if it turns out anything like the amount of work you've put into steemworld, and continue to put in, it will be well worth the effort. Can't wait to vote for you.
I do have something to report. Under the account operations, I've been noticing that outgoing comments have not been updating as quickly as they normally do. The post count comments amount in the stats window has always been a little tardy, but now it's updating before the comment will show up in the account operations window. Sometimes, it doesn't show at all. A refresh of the page resolves that.
I thought I'd let you know about it in case you weren't already aware. I don't know if it's been happening on anything else.
Thanks for your comment!
Yes, I've noticed that too. It seems as if some of the public Steem nodes are having some issues currently. I didn't change anything on my end regarding to receiving the account operations. You could try to switch to a different node in settings. I'm currently using 'rpc2.steemwiz.com'.
The counts in the stats come from my server and normally there is a 1-2 minute gap between the refreshs, because my current server parses new blocks in a one minute interval. That is going to change to a 30 seconds interval (maybe even more often) as soon as I can use my own seed nodes for receiving new blocks.
Very good. Thank you. I have changed to the node you suggested and the comments are definitely showing up in the list much faster.
It sounds like things are going to get even speedier. Overall, I really do like the performance of your site. It take quite a bit of time to load some of these others, let alone navigate from page to page. Having everything virtually at your fingertips is just so much faster. I really do hope you can have a successful run at witness. Your expertise in UI and development could help out a lot. I feel like the end user is as much in mind and a concern on steemworld as all of the backend stuff we never see. I hope we can support you enough that you can keep it up. :)
