What happen is instead of taking 400 MB for the blockchain it takes up to 3 GB and a lot of time. This does not happen if using the bootstrap when after synching with the bootstrap the client is shutdown and then reopened. But, if after the bootstrap the client is left to synch normally without closing, then again a waste of bandwidth happen with a lot of time and data. \r\n\r\nThis strange behaviour on the FIRST synching also happen with linux AFAIK. \r\n\r\nThis is a low priority because the bootstrap is easy to use and then the program can be closed manually or automatically by uncommenting #stopafterblockimport=1 in anoncoin.conf. On next launch of the program the issue disappear and the block synchronization continue without trouble. No clue on what cause this behaviour."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/Anoncoin/anoncoin/issues/comments/170143799","html_url":"https://github.com/Anoncoin/anoncoin/issues/88#issuecomment-170143799","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/Anoncoin/anoncoin/issues/88","id":170143799,"user":{"login":"Cryptoslave","id":9643471,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/9643471?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/Cryptoslave","html_url":"https://github.com/Cryptoslave","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Cryptoslave/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Cryptoslave/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Cryptoslave/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Cryptoslave/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Cryptoslave/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Cryptoslave/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Cryptoslave/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Cryptoslave/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/Cryptoslave/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-01-08T22:20:25Z","updated_at":"2016-01-08T22:20:25Z","body":"After verification with Bitcoin 0.11.0, from an empty %appdata%/Bitcoin directory:\r\n\r\nAll 392387 headers of Bitcoin were recovered in 1 min for a total bandwidth of 39 MB\r\n\r\nvs\r\n\r\nAll 471110 headers of Anoncoin were recovered in 8.5 hours for a total bandwidth of 5 GB, from ten peers in parallel.\r\n\r\n==> There really is an issue with this code!\r\n\r\nIssue is open again and the priority is increased as this is a serious bug"}}
