In response to the two days of testing and after technical discussions with the test miners, the following adjustments will be made to the test:
Without reducing the security of the system, the hard disk capacity requirement of a single node is reduced from more than 1T to between 10G-60G to meet the needs of a wider range of miners. Of course, larger capacity will bring additional, less obvious advantages.
The system for adjusting parameters is currently being tested, and the test chain will be restarted within 1 day.

In addition, the technical problems encountered by some miners during the plotting process are shared as follows:
1 Crash occurred during ploting.
Some miners perform plotting on multi-core machines and set the size of a single file to be too large, which leads to insufficient memory during the plotting process and crashes.
If crash occurs, it is recommended to delete all the hash files in the plotting directory and reset the parameters for plotting.

2 Cannot mine normally after plotting ends
There are two possible reasons for the failure of mining after plotting.
2.1 The wallet address used in the plotting process is inconsistent with the mining process.
2.2 Insufficient hard disk capacity.
