AssumeIndex

Open Kodylow opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

Similar to AssumeUTXO, one way to speed up indexing is to allow the user to download a snapshot of the ordinal index at a specific blockheight and begin validating/updating from there.

This has significant differences and security tradeoffs vs building the index from source that merit debate/discussion, post any thoughts you have on the topic in this issue.

@Kodylow can you try my speedup branch? https://github.com/casey/ord/issues/1648#issuecomment-1426565987. Myself and several testers have been able to sync in an hour or two. I don't think it's necessary to pursue some kind of snapshot feature for the normal sync.

For --index-sats maybe...
