DO NOT DEPOSIT XMR TO CRYPTSY !!
It's NOT POSSIBLE to withdraw coins once you deposit!!! Their system is broken or so they say. Very suspicious!
I opened a ticket almost 4 days ago, still waiting !!

Someone mentioned a website tracking monero nodes - anyone got that handy?
BTW, I just threw up a .9 Beta instance - looking fast and smooth so far. GJ guys!

seems to me like there is some memory leak with 0.9 beta on win 7 x64.
after letting it run 24h something like 8 gb of ram was used, but not visible in the task manager. once i stopped it ram droped down to the usual levels. will try to retest so i can give better feedback.

I don't know what actual commit that beta is on, I'm on one from Aug. 10th, and having no issues with memory. I'm usually around 40MB.
Edit: run with "--version" to see.

I'm using monero 0.9 beta, win7 x64 and save blockchain to disk D: and everything works fine.
Just in case you may have some error in command line, I'm using this: bitmonerod.exe --data-dir d:\coin\monero\data

I sympathize with the child there. Freedom of speech is only ever a good thing when I am free to say whatever the fuck I want, and others can only say whatever the fuck pleases my ears. Smooth must not be allowed to express his opinion by means of post/trust/rating/whatever! Oh ... Wait ... I see what you did there 
Guess you were spotted very early on, off you go back on ignore little Inquisitive Troll(TM).
Please stop posting off-topic nonsense on this thread.
I haven't followed developments as closely as I would like, do we have any up-to-date community built binaries so I could try out the DB version on my Windows box? I know of the cautionary notes and caveats, just wondering if anyone has published binaries yet.

This is from last week: https://downloads.getmonero.org/monero.win.x64.v0-9-beta.zip
Exercise the appropriate level of care with it being a beta. We've recently found and solved what we hope to be the only major, breaking database issue (that could have caused major issues if we'd tagged prematurely), but that means that prior LMDB sync ups have to be resynced from scratch or imported from a fresh blockchain.raw export.
Major thank you for that update :-) I'm going to try it asap!
EDIT1: I encounter problems with the --data-dir switch. Bitmonerod only runs when no options are passed. Otherwise, errors are thrown usually starting like this: "2015-Aug-21 07:49:22.432815 ERROR C:/msys64/bitmonero-build/src/daemon.cpp:145 Uncaught exception! ...."

If you believe in decentralization, please move some trading volume to @cryptsy this week. It will help liquidity and attract new users #xmr
https://twitter.com/XMRpromotions/status/633518825036603392
Please retweet.
Decentralization matters. So does demonstrating to exchanges like bitfinex and btc38 that new exchanges that add us are able to attract volume.

Monero has a touching point onto chinese markets at Bter, trading XMR/CNY with some whopping volume of two bucks.
That's the area to support. I could exaggerate more about Cryptsy but decided to stick with polite manners, just for the very moment.

Bit of both - syncing up only requires tx/block verification, whereas simplewallet actually has to check each transaction for your viewkey. The other problem is that there's no parallelisation in simplewallet, and it chews memory on large wallets (as it keeps the entire cache in-RAM which is silly). We'll be addressing both of those in a future release.
Thanks for clearing it up fluffypony. I should also correct my previous statement: The wallet rescan was not as impressively fast as the full blockchain sync, but it was not really slow either. I just later realized that I had already initiated solo mining on the daemon, so my CPU was having to work pretty hard

Hey Monero-ites... I have a question RE: MyMonero vs. the offline-wallet generator software.
I made an offline address and then tried to "open" it with the given mnemonic seed words in MyMonero, i.e. I was kinda just testing how all this might work IF some day I wanted to make a safe address, to put some monero on it, and then later (eventually) access it again to move/spend the money.
But the ADDRESSES that resulted were NOT the same!
Is that correct? How is this supposed to work, exactly?
For sake of illustration since I'm not gonna USE these addresses now, here is what I got:

MyMonero's viewkey is completely wrong, it should be 0a731057880aec5b222887ee5101e5d8b6c0734c30cefb293f512f4c75637009. I'm going to have to figure out what's gone wrong.
Did you use the HTML offline generator, as in this one: https://github.com/moneromooo-monero/monero-wallet-generator ?
I can answer this.
It's due to the way the MyMonero code derives the viewkey, which is different than simplewallet. Now, for "MyMonero" 13 word seeds, this is correct as it's the established behavior. For 25 word seeds, things can get a bit wonky.
Without getting too technical, simplewallet only generates "seeds" that are valid private keys, but will accept *any* 25 word seed. Mooo's address generator currently produces random seeds, not ensuring they are valid private keys. Due to the way MyMonero creates the view key, it will come up different ("random seed" vs "valid private key seed").
If anyone is interested in the code, I wrote it up here a few days ago: http://pastebin.com/MHYZzWWz
Simple answer: if you send coins to either of those addresses, they'll be recoverable; you'll just have to pay attention (you can "properly" generate the view key from the seed and log into MyMonero with the other method if you want).
Bonus: here's the seed for that address which will work for both simplewallet and MyMonero (will produce your first address):
Code:
hoisting sorry alerts sieve request stockpile eels bemused digit ivory acidic guru jobs people befit merger lending envy lectures sifting puzzled peeled maze mocked lectures
Oh look at you go, I was trying to figure out how the offline generator could be generating seeds that MyMonero can't detect are simplewallet seeds, looks like you've solved it:) Will you PR it to the offline generator?

fluffypony & co,
Just a quick update to say that I've sync'ed from scratch on my Windows box using the beta binaries, took me about 50 minutes to be fully up-to-date. This is on a relatively recent desktop (about 2 years old, with an SSD), and shoddy Internet access.
The only interesting observation I have at the moment, is that it was much faster to get me a fully sync'ed blockchain, than it is to get simplewallet to perform a full wallet rescan (as when doing a wallet restore). I have no clue if this is due to less parallelization of the simplewallet code, or just the nature & complexity of the work in this instance.
Task Manager tells me that a freshly started bitmonerod, is using about 26MB of RAM, though I figure it might not be fully settled yet.
w00t w00t
In the next day or two, I'll try out some tiny transfers in-and-out, as well as daemon solo'ing (which I am willing to bet that I'll give up before I've found a block).
Big Cheers!

Task Manager tells me that a freshly started bitmonerod, is using about 26MB of RAM, though I figure it might not be fully settled yet.
w00t w00t
In the next day or two, I'll try out some tiny transfers in-and-out, as well as daemon solo'ing (which I am willing to bet that I'll give up before I've found a block
). Big Cheers!
Bit of both - syncing up only requires tx/block verification, whereas simplewallet actually has to check each transaction for your viewkey. The other problem is that there's no parallelisation in simplewallet, and it chews memory on large wallets (as it keeps the entire cache in-RAM which is silly). We'll be addressing both of those in a future release.

Thanks dEBRUYNE and double-thanks fluffypony.
Trying out the beta now, will report back any issues I might have (or on IRC if it looks lengthy for whatever reason).

Whats this i here about a new beta?
Is there an OS X beta?
Not yet - we're getting segfaults on older versions of OS X, busy fixing it now. Beta binaries are compiled sorta on-demand when someone is helping to test a specific feature / commit but doesn't have a compile environment.

Hey Monero-ites... I have a question RE: MyMonero vs. the offline-wallet generator software.
I made an offline address and then tried to "open" it with the given mnemonic seed words in MyMonero, i.e. I was kinda just testing how all this might work IF some day I wanted to make a safe address, to put some monero on it, and then later (eventually) access it again to move/spend the money.
But the ADDRESSES that resulted were NOT the same!
Is that correct? How is this supposed to work, exactly?
For sake of illustration since I'm not gonna USE these addresses now, here is what I got:
Offline Generated Address:

So...? IF I had sent money to that first address WOULD IT have BEEN there at this "second" address? I suppose I could just test it with a few cents worth, LOL, but seriously this doesn't seem RIGHT.
An address is an address and for normal humans to EVER be able to understand any of this stuff I think at least THAT has to be consistent.

Interesting. What I can tell you from my own experience is that an offline generated address (moneromoo's thing) opens fine in simplewallet using the mnemonic seed - same address... you can check my video series.
I would test the bolded above, but I bet that it would only show up at one address. I suspect thar be a bug somewhere.
For the record, I love those gigantic motherly lordships.
