RE: Gridcoin Leisure Update 4.0.2 Released

It's mostly still a RAM eater. The largest culprit is, as @tomasbrod mentioned earlier, the block index. With Bitcoin it's an index to the files on disk. Blackcoin extended this to also include the mint,

RE: Crypto wallets memory usage by default

There is not a lot you can do. While we have come a long way so far, we need to reduce the memory further on the development side. There has been some talk regarding moving some of the block data to a

Use Qt Linguist and translate in the staging- or development branch.

RE: Developer Compensation Change Proposal

Some factual corrections for future readers: OK what and or how did this help the end users value , crunchers value? Less forks. Data propagation for the new scraper -> less bandwidth usage and better

RE: Developer Compensation Change Proposal

I don't think we should compare it to wages, mostly because it's not a wage. Remember that many, many open source projects survive and thrive from dedicated members who contribute for free out of interest

Hey, neat. Would you mind translating the wallet as well?

RE: Developer Compensation Change Proposal

Assuming this remains unchanged in the future, that means we would be spending 67% more on marketing monthly than on development. I ask simply, does this make sense for us? I don't mind separating developer

RE: Gridcoin Community Hangout #071

I have continued dwelling into the synchronization speeds trying to improve the performance. One big part is the time it takes to load the contracts from 1 year back after a reorganize. If we instead keep

RE: GridCoin got competition?

We welcome the competition. After all, more competition means more work to scientific research. If someone is catching up on Rosetta I guess we have to push harder, but it's still a win for either party

RE: A Disappointing Optimization

Worth noting here is that while I only did an import, you are going to see an equal reduction in sync times as well. Syncing 0-1M over the network should be 13h faster when/if the PRs are accepted.

RE: BOINC User XML data serialization comparison

Do you think that's possible via flat buffers or grpc? Never heard of those :) Do you have more details on how this can be done in python? Do you mean compresing the string or just converting the CPID

RE: Gridcoin “soft” fork to new block version

Excellent article! The only downside that I see is that we do not know the exact block height the update will happen. This is concern for exchanges and speculative stakeholders. This problem is not insolvable,

RE: BOINC User XML data serialization comparison

(it's Protobuf, @cm-steem :)) The only downside I can think of is that it's binary so it's more difficult to read off the air. I use Protobuf at work to publish data from a microcontroller to an Android

RE: Proposal and Poll: Funding a Proposed Gridcoin Core Client UI Redesign

The funds include the design and assets but not the implementation. We will handle that afterwards and it will be covered by the regular dev expenses.

RE: The real way to do what I originally intended for the Gridcoin greylist system that was my idea and project and my experience with the Gridcoin community and how its left a bad taste in my mouth , stolen ideas,projects and earnings

from what i can glean quickly, you're upset that G_UK ran with the idea of the greylist without consulting anybody who had worked on it previously? am i correct in that? I think that's the jist of it but

RE: Gridcoin Developer Update May 7th, 2018

It consumes nothing other than checking that the hash of the contract matches the consensus. Other than that it's just included in the regular stake process.
