STEP8 - Fast Sync

Fast Sync means nodes can catch up quickly by downloading blocks in bulk.

  • Fast Sync settings can be found in the following file
cat $HOME/.akash/config/config.toml

Verify Fast Sync Settings

  • Most likely no changes will be necessary to config.toml and the default settings will be fine. But we will make sure.

  • Verify the fast_sync field is set to true

    # If this node is many blocks behind the tip of the chain, FastSync
# allows them to catchup quickly by downloading blocks in parallel
# and verifying their commits
fast_sync = true

  • Verify the Fast Sync version is set to v0.

  • While version 0 is said to be the “legacy” version, in our experience this version works better.

# Fast Sync version to use:
#   1) "v0" (default) - the legacy fast sync implementation
#   2) "v1" - refactor of v0 version for better testability
#   2) "v2" - complete redesign of v0, optimized for testability & readability
version = "v0"
