Still seeing a high level of starvation in the Linux build, similar to previously with
(edited)maximum_concurrency = 0. But the stall and lack of events are resolved. I don't have any tools set up for concurrency and performance analysis on Linux, so I've probably gotta work that out. Setting up my monster mac now also.
In the mean time I pulled down Bitcoin Core latest Linux binary to get a benchmark. It's doing significantly better than it did on the same box for a Windows build (15 hours). After 30 minutes it's completed about 10% of the chain (by txs), and projecting 6 hours (and falling). So will probably hit 5 hrs. Interesting how it can be 3x longer on the same box for Windows vs. Linux.evoskuil02:53
If you scroll back a ways you'll see s simpler version. Also, I did discuss my most recent BN validation runs on my big box, which came in about 4.5 hours (without confirming queries, which on that machine are prob another 30 mins at least). I haven't attempted any BC full validation runs yet. I also haven't attempted BC with txindex, which is at least a little closer to our level of indexing.
