Ethereum

switching my ethereum client to Reth
 
now waiting for sync … i just love endlessly looking at progress in the logs, the magical rhythm and flow of the chain, the beauty and complexity  … and then people claim the world is disenchanted by technology lol

Which execution client did you use before?

Research Engineer. Etherean. Home Staker.

I am using nethermind. How fast is the sync time and memory consumption for reth?

sync time will depend on your hardware specs

i’m on a dappnode which is pretty solid - started syncing monday morning, it’s now 50% of stage 4/14. expecting being in sync in about 3 -5 days, but we’ll see.

during sync it peaks between 16-32gb memory use and I’ve read during normal operation its 8-16gb for a full node, what i’m dowing. it’s fine since my machine has 64gb so no worries.

trying reth bc i heard it’s fast and light. running nimbus as consensus client (also for gnosis). pretty happy with that.
