I tried running a full node, but it's too low on memory.
have you try using swap memory ? maybe on harddisk ?
Yeah the whole thing grinds to a crawl. Even compiling the source code overflows into swap space.
hmmm... did you use swap file on the flashdisk ?
i once try compiling with swap file on harddisk and removing the swap file from flashdisk.
I only had a SD card mounted.
I run a full node on another machine now which is more suitable.
well the swap on sdcard is too small and the speed is not adequate. if i remember correctly i use swap partition on harddisk and swap size is around 2G, it can compile ok that way.
i recommend try create swap file on external harddisk and mount it :
#Creating swap file#
dd if=/dev/zero of=/SWAPFILE bs=1024 count=524288
#This will create a 512MB blank file.
#Change the count= to your preferred size.
chown root:root /SWAPFILE
chmod 0600 /SWAPFILE
mkswap /SWAPFILE
swapon /SWAPFILE
or
#Setting swap partition#
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdXN bs=1024
#This will fill the entire partition of /dev/sdXN
mkswap /dev/sdXN
swapon /dev/sdXN
