Great news, maybe it's a step toward Android ?

Many people want a fully functional wallet for Android, i.e. with staking. However most Android phones/tablets on the market come with 1Gb of RAM (maybe a few hundred Mb available actually). That's enough for a light weight Electrum style wallet with no staking. I think 2Gb is a must for an Android port of our Qt wallet.

While a fully functional wallet would be awesome, couldn't a "basic" wallet (send, receive) bring more people to OrbitCoin ?

It would probably. Those light weight wallets are dependent on server infrastructure to get block headers and other necessary data from. It means a few more VPS to spin up. In addition, someone has to take care of this wallet's code base and follow the general development. I'm not sure if there is enough demand right now to justify costs and time required for this task.

On the other hand, if our current wallet is ported to Android, it's pretty much a one time effort. No additional servers required and no separate code base to maintain. More or less.

That's strange, my installation rarely swap while I get 1GB of RAM. Where you using the GUI or the client ? On which distribution ?

Original try was with an Odroid C1 which has a 1.5GHz quad core ARM with 1GB RAM. Ubuntu 14.04. Daemon only - board was running headless. The main issue was the amount of memory that ORB needed (couldn't really use the board for anything else) but there were also the mysterious crashes.

This was over a year ago. It's possible that subsequent updates to the ORB source, or the OS distribution, have quietly fixed whatever the problem was.

Anyway, it's working nicely now on the Odroid C2, quad core 2GHz ARM64 with 2GB RAM.

Good job! That info was posted on another forum thread at https://cryptocointalk.com/topic/38531-minor-problems-compiling-orb-wallet-on-non-x86-cpu-eg-raspberry-pi-odroid-c1/ along with some other useful hints (especially on the second page).
You got it working because you have double of the RAM amount I had (I suppose).
Congrats, anyway

I'm the OP of that thread.

As per that thread I gave up on ORB because an Odroid C1 with 1GB of RAM was insufficient (it would end up swapping like crazy - storage and CPU far too busy), plus it was randomly segfaulting.

I've now come back to it with an Odroid C2, which uses a 64 bit ARM CPU, with 2GB RAM. Not a single crash, and there's enough room for a couple more coin daemons, too.

ORB: 2162M virt, 723M res
COIN2: 2035 virt, 559M res
COIN3: 1017M virt, 344M res

Free memory: 257M

It has been running for 24 days stable, and has staked a couple of times.

I've also installed zram on the C2, which presents a swap device that compresses data, keeping it in RAM rather than swapping to disk if possible. If Raspbian supports it (and it is not already enabled by default) this should make a noticeable difference in available RAM on a 1GB Pi 3. sudo apt-get install zram-config

The NeoScrypt CPUminer is assembly powered. Any C compiler cannot make it faster. There was a quick attempt to add AVX in the past, but SSE2 4-way was faster anyway. Most people don't seem to care about the CPU miner, so I pay more attention to NSGminer.

our blockexplorer is not working?

VPS moved from New York to Virginia. There was a firewall misconfiguration which made our block explorer inaccessible for a day.

With our block reward halving down from 1 ORB to 0.5 ORB in 100K+ blocks, there is an option for the block chain optimisation. We can increase the block time from 1 minute to 2 minutes and keep the current block reward for the next 500K blocks until another halving.

The point is to decrease bloat of the block chain and block index. Many (maybe most) blocks are without user transactions right now. Yet they contribute to the block chain size. What's more important, every block in the chain requires a corresponding entry in the block index. A couple hundred bytes each. It's kept in memory for fast access. In fact, most of the daemon's ~700Mb memory consumption comes from the block index. See yourself how much space is consumed by those *.sst and *.ldb files under data/blktree. Our UTXO data base is fairly compact and may be left as it is for now. The block index can be optimised to some extent, but it's much better to make it grow slower.
