Did somebody already create an address index patch (UTXO and mempool) that is working in pruned mode?
No idea, but the relay block service is active now with the latest git master.

You still verify and relay transactions. Other nodes can no longer get block from you though, at least for now.
If you run git master (to be 0.12 later) instead of 0.11 you will also relay new blocks as they are found while pruning.Hmm... so the server is up to date with the newest blocks now, but I'm still not getting more connections then 8. I've verified that it can be reachable from outside networks.
Never mind, I got it working now. Gonna find the time to update it to 0.12 next.

Note that only the blocks component of the database can be chosen, so -prune=30000 is specifying the size of that portion only. I'm not sure if the rest of the database remains the same size or grows at a tiny rate, not familiar with running in pruned mode long-term.
Also, is there any benefit in running a pruned node? Would that still contribute to the bitcoin network as a whole?

You can also add prune=30000 to the bitcoin.conf file.
Gotcha, thanks!

Hi all,
I'm trying to run a bitcoin node (satoshi 0.11) in pruning mode. If I want to keep the blockchain size at 30gb, should I just restart bitcoind with the command 'bitcoind -prune=30000' ?
Cheers,
John

Went through the code on github, yep I was doing it correctly.
