jonasschnelli: gah, I was baffled why bitcoind wasn't getting more than ~10% cpu usage on my Odroid-C2, then I remembered that the network block device that has the data directory is connected through a 100mbit ethernet switch :-)
<@wumpus>
I need a different setup for benchmarks but not so sure what; it doesn't have USB3 ports, no SATA, just an SD card slot
<@wumpus>
wonder what the fastest speed is that it can achieve through that
<@wumpus>
/dev/nbd0: Timing buffered disk reads: 24 MB in 3.16 seconds = 7.60 MB/sec lOL
<@wumpus>
/dev/mmcblk0:Timing buffered disk reads: 86 MB in 3.01 seconds = 28.54 MB/sec
<@wumpus>
does anyone have some beefy ARM server and mind running a full block sync w/ -debug=bench, with and without #12968 and uploading the logs? I kind of hoped mininode 64-bit hosted ARM servers (https://www.mininodes.com/product/64-bit-arm-mininode/) were good but my experience up to now is slow and unstable
<@wumpus>
but I don't get it, in the images they show it connected through USB, that'd be silly
<@wumpus>
"This is wrong. You can find the eMMC Module connector just beside the microSD Card slot" aha

should getbalance rpc ever return stale results with respect to blocks it knows about??
< sipa>
no
< stevenroose>
sipa: when does Core flush the utxo cache?
< stevenroose>
Does it check the size and flush when too high whenever it processes a block?
< sipa>
stevenroose: also after transactions
< sipa>
with a different threshold
< sipa>
(it actively tries to not needing to flush during block processing)
< stevenroose>
main question would be, does it do so automatically inside the calls for processing them
< stevenroose>
or does it happen outside, triggered by the manager of the coinsviews?
< stevenroose>
yeah that's what I meant
< sipa>
look at where FlushStateToDisk is called
< stevenroose>
hmm, ok. seems like if it's called inside block processing, it can delay the processing of certina blocks by at ton, even though it could be called async
< stevenroose>
will look for that, thanks
< sipa>
yes, my longer term plan is moving the flushing to a background thread
