my delegates are finally producing again .. sorry for the delay .. was sleeping and have noticed the EARLY!!! hardfork!
also had to switch to a different machine .. I hope the devs can fix the memory leak so that I can swtich back to the original machine ..

Fortunately thanks to all the missed blocks the time of the hardfork has been pushed back by over two hours! ;)

Oh and there's no need to change machines finally, I did so at first but turns out you can reindex and resync just fine with 512mb RAM and a swap. It's the compile part that needs lots of RAM.

What a nice surprise you woke up to! :)

So, is the memory leak on-going, or just at re-indexing time?

riverhead-del-server-1 and backbone.riverhead are on the main chain I think now. 77.7% particiption

What about bm.payroll.riverhead ?
Isn't that somewhat important ?

That is in progress (just waiting on sync). It's on a VPS far far away so things are a bit slower. I had already mostly upgraded teh other two last night but fell asleep at the keys around 2am.

Also, missed blocks for bm.payroll.riverhead comes out of my pocket not his :) . BM will not suffer any wage loss due to this issue.

That is strange...
Are the deal parameters public (the deal between you and BM for the delegate) ?

Yes. It's in here somewhere. I'll find it later. Kinda busy right now ;).

The network is currently having major issues with forks due to the latest client release, go to the home page on bitsharesblocks to get an idea. Delegate participation rate has been down to 60% but is now back to 87% at least, we've had confirmation times of >200s.

I would do, but I'm in a public library where only ports 80 and 443 are open, so no bitsharesblocks for me :|

I guess its a good job that not everyone upgraded, due to being asleep/lazy! :)

I'll get around to fixing that eventually! ;) The problem now is the delegates who are still on v0.4.24 or one of the release candidates for v0.4.25. There is a hardfork coming up in about 8 hours as well, and if your VPS server has less than 4gb of ram you might need to switch servers!

do you need 4GB ram just to build or also to run?

Only to build, I've successfully upgraded my seednode which only has 512mb RAM.

If you build on another computer you'll be fine.

What a total cluster f*ck this entire thing is.

We need to make sure that code is thoroughly reviewed before being pushed to latest.

edit: you could title this whole event: how forum notifications almost brought down the entire network
