I updated to version 0.4.24 just yesterday, so I know the blockchain in the wallet on my hard drive is up to date.
Even so, when I launch the bts client and it takes about 5 minutes of hard drive activity before the login screen finally appears.
As the bts blockchain has gotten longer, the time it takes to launch the client is increasing.
I wonder: a year from now, how long will it take to launch the client?
Anyone else have a similar experience?
