00:54:48 <selsta> luigi1111: sorry, https://github.com/monero-project/monero/pull/6388 is also required to fix Windows compilation :/ hope you can merge that too but no hurry
12:07:11 <tromp_> for initial block download, can one choose to download all history or a fraction of it?
12:07:38 <moneromooo> Yes, but experimental.
12:07:47 * moneromooo goes look for the switch
12:07:51 <tromp_> so default is to download all?
12:08:25 <moneromooo> Yes.
12:08:29 <moneromooo> --sync-pruned-blocks
12:08:37 <moneromooo> To be used with --prune-blockchain.
12:10:35 <asymptotically> ooo i didn't know we had that. is it an 8x speedup in sync time?
12:10:56 <moneromooo> No.
12:14:51 <asymptotically> oh, because it's throw away 1/8th of prunable data, not 1/8th of all data?
12:14:54 <asymptotically> will have to test it anyway :)
12:17:08 <moneromooo> Well, I guess it'll be a 8x speedup if you're on dialup.
12:17:55 <moneromooo> Well, more like 6 or 7. But the storage is usually more of a bottleneck than download speed.
13:10:11 <hyc> smartphone nodes are a thing now
