sumokiond.exe will hang during synch when "Lock pages in memory" option is enabled #18

Closed chrisbru closed 6 years ago

Hello, I am running Win 7 - x64 and I experienced that sumokoind.exe will hang during synch when I have enabled the "Lock pages in memory" option in Group Policy editor. Also referred to as large pages. It starts the synch process and will just hang at a certain point. It's completely stuck and even can't be ended with Taskkill or PSKill, even Windows can't shut down while it is stalled.

Disabling "Lock pages in memory" makes it work again.

However, that large pages are a prerequsite for proper mining (XMR-STAK-CPU/XMRig) and switching back and forth is somewhat annoying. Also this might prevent other potential Sumokoin miners/users from accepting the client, as I assume most have enabled large pages.

Maybe you can have a look at it if you find some time. Thanks!

Attached a snippet from the log file. The last line is were it stops/hangs. sumokoind

I have no idea on this specific issue. sumokoind daemon is a seperated project and I'm not sure how it could support "Lock pages in memory" on Windows. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Hi Bill, thanks for your reply. Could you point me in the right direction to whom I should report that bug then? I did a Github search and did not find anything other related to "sumokoind" apart from that GuiWallet project. Cheers!

sumokoind daemon is from core binaries of the Sumokoin project https://github.com/sumoprojects/sumokoin

The wallet just make RPC calls to it for sync info. You can find binaries at subdirectory: Resources/bin under installed directory.
