Fast Catchup for Mainnet

MaxCatchpointDownloadDuration

The value for MaxCatchpointDownloadDuration should be in nanoseconds. You need to add zeros: 8 hours x 60 minutes x 60 seconds x 10^9 nanoseconds = 28800000000000.

Sync Duration Observations

After changing MaxCatchpointDownloadDuration from 7200 to 28800 it took ~6 hours to complete the sync. Thank you for support! Up to now I was reading Dev Docs pages and this forum. Are there other resources (besides source code) with higher level of detail?

Hardware Limitations

Thank you for explanations. Indeed, I have HDD (320 GB), 3GB DDR3 RAM, and Internet is < 100Mbps Did monitoring last night, and see that after approx. 4.5 million accounts processed - some reset happens. It all starts from beginning then: reset

Processing Speed Concerns

Still unclear to me. 14 million / 10 minutes = 23333 accounts / second. And blocks processing on top. Does not happen in my case… in fact, it takes hours to process accounts. And how about stop/start behavior? I see that processing accounts starts from the very beginning. So 14 million accounts to be processed...

Sync Process Details

Trying to sync mainnet. In Install a Node - Algorand Developer Portal it says “minutes”; and this I can understand: 13970000#… point is less than 10000 blocks away (at the time of writing). But before processing blocks the node processes accounts: ~14 million. I also noticed that restarting the node...
