Topic: 0.8: How many times do I need to "reindex"? (Read 2230 times)
hew do i reindex as when i dun it from the debug window i get an error?
Yeah I had to download the whole chain again, but this time complete download and verification took aprox 2.5 hours on a VM. Last time I went through that ordeal it was well in excess of 24 hours. The client certainly has come a long way with this most recent update.
afaik, you only need to reindex once. if you're having problems, you can always delete everything except for wallet.dat, and resync using 0.8
That's what I ended up doing after reindexing slowed to a block a minute. Turns out redownloading the chain isn't that bad anymore.

I had a full blockchain before the upgrade. After the upgrade, 0.8 reindexed the blockchain once. That's fine, I thought. Not much time later, the number of blocks remaining went up by ~8000 and the last ~8000 blocks needed to be reindexed again. And now, the number of blocks remaining went up by ~3000 and the last ~3000 blocks need to be reindexed one more time. How many reindicies should I expect? Is this normal behaviour?
