Ram issue #17

Closed meesvw closed 2 years ago

meesvw commented 2 years ago

I have been testing the script and discovered an issue with the RAM usage going up. If you run the script long enough the ram usage will slowly go up.

Tested the script inside a limited container. Not sure how much it goes up in what span of time.

Hi! I've not noticed it yet. Right now I'm at the university, and I don't have access to my personal computer. So I'll check it later. I also noticed your fork. It seems to have nice improvements. I'll check that too!

It's a good and simple Python program :) I have removed the tqdm in my version which seems to have solved the issue ? However my version right now doesn't allow for custom cpu usage, visual it/s and generating a wallet. Which I will add, but I split the bruteforce function in to two different onces:

TBF will generate every BTC wallet it can and split the load over multiple cores.

RBF will like it says just randomly generate wallets.

I also discovered that using the in instead of find to be faster in my runs of 10000 roughly 1 - 2 secs.

Yes, I started learning python by developing it.

Most probably that's right. I have implemented a new progress management system that will be available in the next update. It also reduces the impact on the speed of the main process.

I'm going to add sequential/random option too!

I'll consider it in the next update!🤝
