Lost my internet connection for 2 hours, and now syncing is dragging

[Aspy68]

Does not sound normal to me.

I’ve seen much discussion recently about too many peers being an issue causing syncing to slow.

Lsherring finally overcame his syncing issue after Jacek helped him reduce his peers to 20.

@Lsherring

Jacek is a Chia Stud! After four hours of troubleshooting, my rig is back to normal. There was never a network issue, we proved that. The resolution was to reduce the # of peer connections from 80 to 20. We saw instant impact for the better on memory and I got over a gig of download. The twenty peers eventually went to 10 as I was getting more than a gig of data. I highly suggest changing the peer count while synching. What took two weeks was done in a 36 hours.

I have no idea if this is your problem but it’s not a bad place to start.
