How well is small change maintaining the 15 second block target, and does the reward of 4 coins per 15 seconds seem to have any effect?
I know with Franko, that was one of my main concerns with the 30 second block times I chose. Also did you change the max blocksize at all, and if so, what is one of the major things you have noticed?
As soon as I find a few hours free time (probably next weekend), I'll upload some metrics with a timeline of the 'major events' and try to interpret those metrics (also towards your questions).
Anybody finding nodes? I don't.
Me too. From the 9 nodes still in the IRC channels, currently only mine appears to be on the newer version.
