"Scanning blockchain" takes ages (over 10 minutes).
Is there any way to speed it up?

It seems to depend very non-linearly on the amount of memory. I don't have a better solution yet other than just making sure you give it enough memory. For me anything above -Xmx1024M works fine, 768M is slow, 512M crashed after more than 10 min of high CPU load. It is strange because last week I was able to run it with only -Xmx256M. These are the timings I get now:

-Xmx4096M:   55 s
-Xmx1024M:   58 s
-Xmx768M:     2 min 26 s
-Xmx512M:     > 10 min, out of memory


Oh well, no raspberry  anymore  Undecided

It will only work with it when starting without db and build it new. After restart its not working anymore...

odroid:
-Xmx1024M: ~5min
-Xmx512M:   ~25min but starting
