How many blocks until it is completed? It is showing a little bit more then 86,000 last time I checked.
It does seem to take forever to fully sync as I need to turn off my client sometimes to do some photo/video editing just to save on the cpu power it takes when started. I do have to type the stop command in the cli at times which can get bothersome to do.
Just want this client synced already.
Will I need to go through this same process when this new v1.3.0 people are saying is going to be available on Friday(as in today or next friday a week from now )?
The syncing is much quicker after you have completed it the first time. Based on my experience, it took a few hours to sync the first time and afterwords, maybe just a few mins at the most when reloading up.
