What could be the reason that my node syncs so slowly?
I¹ am trying to sync Bitcoin Core v24.0.1 on my Desktop with 16 GB RAM and an Intel Core i7-7700HQ processor, but it is taking forever even to get past the header synchronization. It tells me that it will take over 3.5 years to synchronize.
3 hours later, my node is still in Header Synchronization:
- I have a decent internet connection and am connected to my router via wifi
- I downloaded Bitcoin Core v24.0.1 from bitcoincore.org
- I’m using an internal hard drive
- I have ten connections, but have only received about 340 kB across my eight outbound connections in the ~10 minutes minutes
- I have tried to add a few nodes from bitnodes.io via
addnode <ip> onetry
to perhaps learn about more peers (and the added nodes show up when I callgetaddednodeinfo
as past connections) - I have over 365 GB of free disk space
Any ideas what else I should try?
