I’ve already posted similar data. Lots of denial about whether we are actually validating. Lots of claims they will improve. They accepted a bunch of perf pull requests but really achieved nothing.

libbitcoin is for core what starship is for saturn V. My current build doesn´t fire up though.

Can I override the seed defaults in the settings file?

Or you can create a hosts.cache file filled with one host per line.
