I believe they are now recommending the use of ElectrumX over the normal Electrum Server. Is there a reason you aren't using ElectrumX?

Basically because I spent like three days configuring the normal electrum server to work properly, and I don't want to go through all that again for ElectrumX.

Have you tried downloading the UTXO database instead of generating it from scratch? Electrum maintains a daily version here: http://foundry.electrum.org/leveldb-dump

Yep, but I still have some blocks to catch up since I'm only on a 30mb down connection.

I just wanted to know if there is some other way, like tweaking settings or something.
