< jeremyrubin> jamesob: fwiw there are some really fast chain scanning and indexing things out there... so I think as long as you get a tip hash from core, might make sense to just have something completely independent.
< jeremyrubin> It also relates to some of the RPC Proxy discussion because then it's possible to 'fuse' a few different servers under one common API endpoint.
< jamesob> jeremyrubin: yeah I've been using electrs which is pretty quick
< jeremyrubin> i also think if you fuse it under a common proxy iface you can drop txindex
< jeremyrubin> because there's no point, if people are upgrading core, to not say 'this is dropped run as ext service'
< jeremyrubin> Especially if it doesn't have to break compat with the actual other software
< jamesob> probably some reliance out there on getrawtransaction RPC so would have to be deprecated imo
< jeremyrubin> Eh I mean to say it's deprecated if you just run core, but you can just connect via rpc proxy that has an identical service then you don't need to deprecate the API itself (just the node setup)
< jamesob> oh gotcha
