    Further update on speeding up the bootstrap

    [...]

    Currently testing a new build of the client to see how much it improves performance.

    Test bootstrap import on Windows client completed. There's virtually no distinguishable difference. Sad With a clean datadir (on SSD) it still takes 11-12 hours.

    With older clients it's possible to do a poor man's bootstrap by downloading blk0001.dat and then starting the client with the -reindex option, but it looks like newer leveldb based clients do not support this. Pity, because a reindex would take several minutes rather than several hours.

    I guess the only other way is to provide a complete archive of the blockchain database for download, but because it also contains indexes it will be larger than a bootstrap.
