Medium - A non-essential functionality does not work, performance issues, etc.
Description:
I've been repeatedly pinning to my vps a "public" directory in my home dir for some time now. Each time I do so, it goes through "Fetched/Processed 80212 nodes" even though 99% of those nodes are already pinned on my vps. Rather than processing 80212 nodes, IPFS should realize when a branch of the merkledag has already been pinned and stop.
Version information:
