Hi All,

I'm trying to get a new electrum server started, but it doesn't seem to sync all the way with bitcoind.  Bitcoind is up to the latest block, but electrum server is almost 1000 blocks behind it and falling further behind.  At one point it was 941 blocks behind, then 966 blocks behind, ...

Edit: Can it take that much longer to process via electrum than to keep up with the blockchain with bitcoind?  That is, if the hardware can keep up with bitcoind with lots of CPU and RAM to spare, shouldn't it be possible for electrum-server to catch up?  The log just shows it dropping further and further behind.  Perhaps I'm just missing something here?
