user5594: I runned a node on testnet successfully, then I wanted to do it again but in the mainnet. I installed by following "Coincashew" guide and the developers cardano guide. I am encountering the following error and problems. First, node makes a very slow chunk validation, by my experience on testnet this is really weird, but, it might be something from mainnet?, I don't really know, this is a sample of the process:

Right after that chunk validation the following is shown:

Then, the node starts replaying ledger from genesis:

After this the node starts syncing for a while, but all of the sudden it stops, showing the following:
The problem first showed up with cardano-node version 1.34.1 I thought that maybe updating to 1.35.1 would solve the problem, but it didn't.
This output are from 1.35.1 I don't know if the first two issues posted happened in 1.34.1 because I didn't reload the node

I runned everything again and I noticed this warning

user6632: Summary of comments:
System with 8GB of RAM and no swap space defined, so the process would run out of memory and terminate.
Swap space will be set up (10GB) and things should be ok.
