If you know what they mean, try these:

sudo mount -o remount,size=9G /dev/shm
./steemd --shared-file-dir "/dev/shm/" --replay

It will finish in about 10 minutes.
(remember to set enable-plugin = witness in config.ini before that)

Thanks !

No, I don't know what that means :D
I will have to try anyways - I'm still waiting at ~90%
That's not an option.

enable-plugin = witness 

I looked that up before ...
It's set by default, isn't it ?

If that was meant to create a new partition (?) it didn't work - the miner still shows me the same amount of free memory. (?)

I found out however, that it's much faster replaying the blocks a second time. Just up to the point where I was stuck.

I had to restart anyways - I was using the active key and I learned today it's supposed to be the posting key.

All guides on Steemit are wrong about that part.

Check my new post: https://steemit.com/witness-category/@abit/best-practice-running-steemd-v0-16-0

//Edit: in regards to the keys, it should be "signing key" for block producing and "active key" for submitting PoW. I won't explain it in detail here, you need to learn by yourself (also the replay thing).

If there were any sources, I'd be eager to learn, but other than trying, there isn't an option,

Thanks anyways.

//Edit: in regards to the keys, please check steemit.chat/channel/mining and scroll up two pages.
You will find @bitcoiner stating: 'active key is not involved in mining at all'
Since I saw him in the queue a few times, I thought that was how it is then ...
