Don't suppose there's a bootstrap available? Would be nice to fast-forward. I've been trying to sync from 2016 for the past week or so, and it only seems to sync maybe 24 hours's worth of blocks at a time before I need to restart the wallet. Same issue is present on both 0.8.7.5 and 0.8.6.2. Have tried multiple machines too.
edit - It also appears that worldcoind will not compile on Ubuntu 16.04. Any ideas there?
