Is there any way to speed up the synchronization on linux wallet?
Based on my estimation it will take 10 days to fully synchronize with the network.
It is also using high percentage of CPU ( pushing up to 70-80%).
Snapshot (published few pages back on this thread) is the way... Otherwise you are guaranteed stuck somewhere during synchronisation.
Regarding CPU usage - yes, it is CPU hog. But fixing that issue would need serious investigation to find the reason. Would be nice if someone takes the time to do that... even if this code is going to be replaced at some point.
Here's a link to latest chain data, provided by Robert3Harrison Aug16th (thanks), in a link that user won't have to install megashare app in order to download... maybe this helps someone.

I'm happy to further host any 8bit content, if it were helpful.
I can look into mem issue but don't get hopes up.
