Hi,
I have three questions again, related to the Windows client
<https://github.com/ArcoMul/Twisting> I am working on.
*1.Delay in call response*
The past few days I have been testing new instances of Twister/Twisting and
I noticed that when starting a new instance the deamon responses really
badly for about 15 to 20 minutes. The following is the process I go through:
- Start Twisting
- Start the deamon in the background
- Make sure the blockchain is up to date + there is at least one
connection
- Make the user logs in his account
- Get following of user
- Follow all those users
- Go the 'main feed'
- Call getposts to get the latest posts (getposts 2-
'[{"username":"arco"}, {"username":"john"}, {"username":"smith"}, ... + 130
other users ... ]'
This latest call, getposts returns some posts just after the user logged
in, but one minute later the call doesn't get a response at all. I did
notice though, that calling the getposts call with only one user does get a
response after a while. (Is it bad practise to call getposts with all the
users the user follows?)
During this time I took a look at the debug.log and nothing seemed to
happen. The only thing the deamon did was 'adding torrent for user [<random
username>]'
A possible cause might be that I am not shipping the right files of the
blockchain, so the deamon is processing this database or whatsoever. See
next question.
All in all the problem is that I can't show the user any posts when the
client gets started for the first time. Making the user wait for 15 to 20
minutes isn't really an option though.
*2.Shipping the blockchain*
I'm want to ship the blockchain together with the application, I hope this
is not bad practice? Which files should I ship exactly. At the moment I
ship the following, and it seems to work fine but I would like to be sure
that I am not sharing private or unnecessary data:
- The folder blocks
- The folder chainstate
- twister.conf
*3. Deamon size*
The deamon (twisterd.exe) size of the Windows build I have is 147MB. Seems
a bit big for a data processing application. Is this correct or did
something go wrong with building maybe? I don't have a Linux instance to
compare it with at the moment.
That's it! Once again, thanks for your time :-)
Arco
