> The bottleneck is not bulk disk space, but rather IOPS. Exactly. I stopped running a full node on both of my desktops machines in the last month. Both systems were simply becoming very noticeable (=unbearably) sluggish. I am also running dedicated nodes, which are fine, but on a desktop latency is a major issue (or, let's say, a different issue than on a server).
I didn't notice any network latency, but that's hard to judge as our internet is pants anyway. Arne PS: my machines aren't the newest, but still do a stellar job (without bitcoind running ;) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Put Bad Developers to Shame Dominate Development with Jenkins Continuous Integration Continuously Automate Build, Test & Deployment Start a new project now.
