    does it normally take over 24 hours to download and sync with the network?Huh just a little ridiculous IMHO.

    Yes. It's 40 GB, and it grows about 100 MB every day. Make sure you've got space, the Armory database also takes around 40 GB atm.

    Last month I created a wallet on a computer not connected to the internet.  I added the wallet to a connected PC with what I thought was a watch only but it said offline in the security window.  I wanted to create another wallet and thought I did everything the same but this time it shows security as "watch only".
    what are the differences
    thanks

    The difference between "watch-only" and "offline" is whether you have told Armory that you own the full wallet with the private keys ("offline"), or that it is somebody else's wallet you watch (watch-only).  I think.

    Anything to be done about armoryd's crazy memory usage? I'm seeing 41GB virt and about 6GB residual. It's causing other processes to start swapping. It is done scanning blocks, this is persistent memory usage. In comparison, bitcoind only uses about 55MB residual.

    Restarting the process causes the memory to go down, but then armoryd starts eating up CPU and filling up again. It continually is using the lion's share of resources on the system.

    When a program (such as Armory) reads a file, the file is copied into memory.  As soon as Armory is done using the file, the memory is marked as available for other programs, but until another program claims the memory, you still see it as assigned to Armory because the kernel assumes that there is a chance that Armory will open that file again, and Armory's data is still there.

    All modern operating systems do this, so it always look like there is very little RAM free.  I do not know about Windows, but on Linux the kernel still keeps track of that memory after Armory quits, in case some other program happens to want the same file.  As soon as the memory is needed for something else, it is wiped and assigned to that something else.


    I don't think this is exactly true in Armory's case. We have attempted to jail Armory using cgroups but during database rebuilds it fails if the memory restrictions are too stringent (<2GB in my testing). Additionally, if there is swap on the system, it appears the system will use the swap before asking Armory to relinquish any of its used memory, causing other processes on the system to hang waiting for I/O.

    Both are obvious symptoms. If Armory is aggressively asking for memory it will take priority over processes in the background or that aren't requesting as much I/O. That's basic OS optimization.

    As for memory requirements, Armory expects to have about 2~4GB of RAM at its disposal for it's own scanning needs. The rest is mmap'ed files requested by LMDB. That's controlled by a hardcoded value and will probably be dynamically assigned in the upcoming version.

    Are you using a 32bit OS? How much free disk space do you have?

    0.93.x does not work on x86 OS. Wait for 0.94

    i saw this in the Bitcoin wiki for deterministic wallets:

    "Armory deterministic wallet
    Armory has its own Type-2 deterministic wallet format based on a "root key" and a "chain code." Earlier versions of Armory required backing up both the "root key" and "chaincode," while newer versions start deriving the chaincode from the private key in a non-reversible way. These newer Armory wallets (0.89+) only require the single, 256-bit root key. This older format is intended to be phased out in favor of the standard BIP0032 format. "

    is this going to be a problem for those who keep and maintain old style wallets with both the chain code and root key?

    The new wallet format supporting BIP32 will be backwards compatible with every previous Armory wallet format.

    When you say "BIP32", do you mean BIP44?

    I guess that's the proper name for the BIP specified HD wallets. Confusing me >_<"

    BIP44 is the standard for multiple account wallets derived from a single seed.
