Not that great, I'm still having problems, let's rehash them:

1. RPC-enabled version wasn't running and I had to comment out the code explicitly making it halt.
2. DB size growth stopped after 5 days of increasing. It reached 5 GiB, just like others reported, but "latest mci" number was 228k instead of 664k.
3. I relaunched the software and now it's showing "queued jobs: [], locked keys: []" non-stop 12 hours straight.

Before I re-run syncing from scratch let's try one trick...

Could someone upload and share his fully-synced DB files (if this doesn't leak sensitive info)?
