jonasschnelli: need to do a measurement of a sync between a pair of old nodes and a pair of new nodes.
< gmaxwell>
and just mention as a top level release note that the IBD speed went from x to y due to networking improvements, assume valid, validation cache improvements, and other optimizations.
< jonasschnelli>
gmaxwell: I need to talk about the 0.14 release tomorrow,... do we have a rough estimation already?
< gmaxwell>
A kazillion fold.
< gmaxwell>
For a talk you can say reduced by hours.
< jonasschnelli>
Okay. That seems to be vague but precise enough. :)
< gmaxwell>
on fast computers the network changes and validation cache help a lot, and on really slow computers the assume valid change is more tens of hours reduction.
< jonasschnelli>
Regardless of talks, etc. We should mention the sigcache and the network "refactor" in the release notes.
< gmaxwell>
well as I said, we should mention the performance, and list why. The headline is the performance.
< jonasschnelli>
It seems to me that the a major part of the effort for 0.14 is missing in the release notes
< jonasschnelli>
I agree with performance as headline.

luke-jr: I think your sensitive datafilter is nice,.. but we always dump the sent command into the console window... this should also be filtered, not?
< jonasschnelli>
Is there a reason why the internal miner mines to p2pk instead of p2pkh?
< jl2012>
jonasschnelli: I think it's overall cheaper to use P2PK
< luke-jr>
jonasschnelli: dunno, maybe
< sipa>
jonasschnelli: i think the real reason is just histoical
