Block Download Taking 3 Days #143

Open slyfoxxy opened 5 years ago

slyfoxxy commented 5 years ago

I just downloaded XSN Core Wallet and need to download the 5GB of blocks, but it is telling it will take 3-4 days to complete. The guy in the tutorial said it would take 40 minutes.

Version 1.0.20

I am running Windows 10 on i5 Core processor with Disk 0 (C:)

ST1000LM024 HN-M101MBB

Capacity:   932 GB
Formatted:  931 GB
System disk:    Yes
Page file:  Yes

Read speed  85.7 KB/s
Write speed 220 KB/s
Active time 12%
Average response time   8.4 ms

I have a feeling it may be the disk since I changed this from D: to C: some months ago to get my computer to function.

I don't want to attempt recreating the issue because I have already been downloading for 3 hours and don't want to lose the progress.

On speedtest.net I am seeing upload and download speeds upwards of 100 Mbps. However, the WiFi in my task manager is saying

Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160 #2

Adapter name:   Wi-Fi 2
SSID:   ***********
Connection type:    802.11ac
IPv4 address:   ************
Receive 992 Kbps
Send    128 Kbps

I just downloaded an episode from Netflix my Receive speed increased to 20-100 Mbps and a 20 minute episode took a little over a minute. Similarly, when I start uploading photos to an email my send speed increases up to 100 Mbps.

Update: This finished downloading in approximately 9-12 hours. The rate of downloading blocks increased to 12%/hr as far as I know. Currently, synchronizing data is slow. but my MN is still active. Any thoughts on how to increase the speed of this?
