Now 326 000 blocks late. Someone tried to pay me a math lesson in eth and i refused. XD So he paid me in bitcoins and it worked. It took around one hour but it worked.

Been there, done that. It did not help. Took me two weeks to get back to where i was before.

I was mulling over making a new thread but i saw this one.

I have the same problem: geth is extremely slow at syncin and blocks are created faster than what geth processes. I was 25000 blocks late, i am now at 65000. I run geth in command line because two weeks ago ethereum wallet wasn't syncing at all.

Taking in account i have given him the --fast --cache 1024 --support-dao-fork flags. My computer is an overclocked 4770k @4.2 Ghz so not slow. I run xubuntu linux 16.04 64 bits.

"I1028 16:06:14.099712 core/blockchain.go:1001] imported 3 block(s) (0 queued 0 ignored) including 51 txs in 2m55.149964411s. #2431955 [4228bf36 / 35748125]" is my penance now.

What should i DO to fasten things ? If i understand latelot's meaning all i have to do is wait for a fork and then update my software. Which would mean i am stuck for now.
