RE: Hive-Engine Snapshot Proposal Renewal

Thank you, I need a strong server and at least 1TB for the full node anyways, as the running node now requires about 500GB and for keeping up with the chain, especially since ivm is a little bit slower than vm2 used to be. But I might consider this in the future when storage requirements change🙂

Ouch, seems to have grown quite a bit since I stopped running mine, think it was at the low 400s. That’s some quick growth.

Is that the snapshot or the actual node itself?

Haven't really tracked the node size so far, but I'm guessing it's 1.5 to 2 times as much. Probably depends on compression level and stuff.

Would be interesting data for sure.

Have you also considered running a read replica off your node that runs api.primersion.com and then just using that to take the snapshots so you don’t need an as powerful server?

But I would still have to shut down the node for taking the snapshot, so the data does not change in the meantime, right? Or is it possible to pause replication?

Ah yeah I forgot that's needed. Might be a way to pause replication, I don't work with mongo enough to know the answer of the top of my head.

at least for the snapshot. probably a lot more for the running instance.
