Description

Please note this is just a beta version, some known bug fix is on the way. v1.1.1-beta is released which has better performance in order to handle the high volume. Please feel free to upgrade and raise bug reports onto the github.

Sync Faster

For nodes that need block sync as fast as possible, we highlight the suggested hardware here:

For validator:

• 2T GB of free disk space, solid-state drive(SSD), gp3, 8k IOPS, 250MB/S throughput, read latency <1ms
• 12 cores of CPU and 48 gigabytes of memory (RAM)
• m5zn.3xlarge instance type on AWS, or c2-standard-8 on Google cloud.
• A broadband Internet connection with upload/download speeds of 10 megabyte per second

For fullnode:

• 1T GB of free disk space, solid-state drive(SSD), gp3, 3k IOPS, 125MB/S throughput, read latency <1ms. (if start with snap/fast sync, it will need NVMe SSD)
• 8 cores of CPU and 32 gigabytes of memory (RAM).
• c5.4xlarge instance type on AWS, c2-standard-8 on Google cloud.
• A broadband Internet connection with upload/download speeds of 5 megabyte per second
