I am synching the blockchain on a rpi 4 with 4 gb ram. Sometimes monerod uses upto 3 gb ram and system basicly freezes. Is it normal? Is there any flag that I can use for db sync to be less heavy? Not using any db flags atm.

Thanks!

    this could take 5-6 weeks to sync

    Can I sync on x86 computer and move lmdb to arm64 computer? Also, is pruned db smaller than fresh sync’d db?

    Tak!

      Yes! That is possible, check out this guide. Pruned db is smaller but it will first do a full sync and then prune it so you still need enough storage for the “peak”.
