RE: Consistency in configuration of public EOS “Full Nodes”

in #eos6 years ago (edited)

How long does it take to sync a fullnode? I've been running mine for 8h and the disk space used only increased by 10MB with the following config:

plugin = eosio::chain_plugin
plugin = eosio::chain_api_plugin
plugin = eosio::history_plugin
plugin = eosio::history_api_plugin
plugin = eosio::http_plugin

I'm only seeing produce_block output instead of sync messages:

Eep sorry I missed this.

Two things:

  1. It takes a while for history for EOS mainnet, and a lot longer if you're using lower end equipment. I'd estimate about a week on a 4.5ghz machine, with the shared_memory files loaded into RAM (avoiding needing to write to disk).
  2. It sounds like you've started your own chain, which is why you're producing blocks. There's no history until you start generating some on your network, or you can reconfigure your network with the mainnet peers and proper genesis files to start syncing the full chain.

I know those answers probably lead to a lot more questions :)
