Re: [ANN] Slimcoin : Proof of Burn NEW BLOCK GEN, Mineable by low power computer!
That's good to hear. Did you pull my whole github fork, or just make the change I gave to a123's version?
Yes, I pulled the whole fork. But I'm not using it productively still (that is still one of the last of a123's versions). Will try it out these days.I followed the advice of some of you and have re-enabled PoS - without problems so far. And I got my first PoB block, with only 20 SLM burnt so far
Will burn some more now and play around.Quote
I seem to have gotten rid of the slimcoin-qt crashes by compiling a version which is more aggressive at banning 'old version' clients (ones that keep spamming getblocks requests). This suggests that the crash is due to dealing with large numbers of requests in close proximity or something similar - which would be consistent with what I've seen where the memory usage suddenly spikes upwards before a crash. I'm just not sure about pushing that pach out widely, since I don't know what the chances are of it banning a legitimate node by accident. I am still showing 27 active connections, though, which suggests it hasn't banned everyone (yet?).
I don't know if slimcoin on linux has the same problem; as far as I know, I'm the only one reporting issues with this and I'm mainly running the Windows client. (I should try running a linux one too and see how it goes.)

I'm running the linux version (without gui) and I get the errors and crashes only when I run it with too low memory / swap space (512 MB seems to be too low, for example). But here I can't help you because I'm not so much of a techie ...
