Is there a way to increase syncing speed?
My masternode is on a Vultr vps.
The syncing of the masternode can't keep up with the increment of the blockchain, so it is getting more and more behind.
I have 512mb memory and 2GB swap.
How can I speed this up?

There's no way in hell you can run this coin with 512mb of ram.  With config options, expect it to gobble up 4gb of ram trying to swallow it's blockchain.   With options (I posted a few above) it'll use 1gb of ram.

Here's the proof:

Code:
top - 19:39:59 up 30 days, 15:36,  1 user,  load average: 0.17, 0.17, 0.22
Tasks:  21 total,   1 running,  20 sleeping,   0 stopped,   0 zombie
%Cpu(s):  0.2 us,  0.6 sy,  1.5 ni, 97.8 id,  0.0 wa,  0.0 hi,  0.0 si,  0.0 st
KiB Mem:   4194304 total,  1915204 used,  2279100 free,        0 buffers
KiB Swap:   524288 total,   111496 used,   412792 free.  1110980 cached Mem

23581 poops     20   0 1529660 107312  10780 S   6.3  2.6 228:52.39 bitcloudd

I'm running 2 MN coins.  Bitcloud and 8bit on the same container.  Compare.



So it makes no difference that the 2 GB swap is on an SSD?
I tought because SSD is fast I could have more fast memory.
I just switched to Vultr because on my Time4vps I was not permitted to enlarge the swap file
