      @engetsu - I appreciate your frustration. We are working to sort out all of these sync issues in our next release.

      if you’re on windows…

      • make a shortcut to feathercoin-qt on your desktop
      • right click and click properties
      • add the following to the end of the Target path

      "C:\Program Files\Feathercoin\feathercoin-qt.exe" -maxorphantx=5000 -maxblockorphans=12000 -dbcache=4096 -rescan

      let us know how you get on.

          Could you please go into more detail?

          “Doesn’t work” makes it hard for us to provide support.

                  Hi @Anema

                  this is the expected behaviour. You just need to leave your machine on and set it to not go onto standby or sleep mode.

                  Leaving it on for 1 week 24/7 - and you can guarantee it’s been online that whole time… then something else might be wrong with your setup.

                  The orphan blocks are blocks that have to be processed - in the past Feathercoin had attacks on it’s blockchain and this caused orphan chains to happen.

                    I think from now on the best thing to do just leave the computer open . About my setting I have no idea I just downloaded the setup and then Install it . I dont think I have a problem with my firewall or anything else. Ty for the info btw

                      I did a try from fresh, for the sake of benchmarking and potential useful info.
                      So far, 36 weeks behind @2days 19hours, will report in upon completion.

                                Hi, can you lay out all you research and evidence for your conclusion?

                                    Ok, reporting in.
                                    Tested fresh download, install and sync.
                                    The sync ended last night (i was sleeping at the time), time now is +4d10h, so the sync stopped at about ~ +4d5h

                                    The sync was done on an HP TM2-2190,
                                    gpu is Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 4500MHD (it has a switchable ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4550 gpu but i wanted it to run cooler if it was about to stay on for a long time).
                                    Energy cpu profile was min5% max 100%.
                                    Resource monitoring showed an average cpu usage of
                                    core1: ~20% and core2: ~70%

                                    Internet connection is an ADSL2+ synced at 19mbps down/1mpbs up
                                    Internet interruption occured once a day - based on my router scheduling
                                    Internet outages - only Isp and God knows, forgot not to auto flush router log, sorry

                                      It is the CPU that matters, HP TM2-2190 is quite a “slow” (1.2GHz) notebook laptop. The 50% average CPU usage shows why it took 4 1/2 days…

                                          I have a similar PC with 32 GB RAM, it took 25 hours with bootstrap < 48 hrs online. Over numerous tests.

                                          We know you can still be “unlucky” and it be longer, but that was a compromise increasing a temprorary memory allocation (without denigrating normal operation). Future updates to the blockchain code base will address the main speed issues.

                                          Version 0.11.2 does the a bootstrap.dat sync in 2.5 hours.

                                            Could an automated update server be implemented, whre the application could pull the bootstrap file automaticaly?
