This is the exact same graph overlaid with Bitcoin Core ASSUME VALID times sampled at 50k intervals, from the same machine.

I’m curious about the shitstorm when you publish this data

I’ve already posted similar data. Lots of denial about whether we are actually validating. Lots of claims they will improve. They accepted a bunch of perf pull requests but really achieved nothing.

libbitcoin is for core what starship is for saturn V. My current build doesn´t fire up though.

Can I override the seed defaults in the settings file?

evoskuil15:52

Yeah, the seed nodes are not active. You can set any number of seeds by: [network] seed = ip or dns host [:port] seed = …

evoskuil15:53

Or you can create a hosts.cache file filled with one host per line.
