P2Pool v3.6 was released.
Changes:
- Avoid unnecessary block broadcasts and block requests to save traffic (works best when connected to v3.6+ nodes)
- 2 times faster initial sync when connected to v3.6+ nodes
- Release binaries for Windows are now built with clang compiler (7-8% faster block verification)
- Tweaked how release binaries for other OS are built, binary sizes are reduced significantly
- Fixed a rare data race bug that could happen during block verification
- Added a full source code archive with all dependencies
I see. Disregard it then, it might have been something accidental. Actually I didn’t check if the node was up or down, so it was just a guess. (If someone happens to experience a weird error where the daemon refuses to start, tweaking
--add-priority-nodewouldn’t hurt, I guess.)Anyway one of the two priority nodes, in a recommended command in README.md, has changed.
