re 15 minutes: hmmm.. have you tried the version I mentioned or do you still use some of the previous versions?
re compressing: if by "compressing" you mean "skipping blocks" then no, wallet needs them all to rebuild chain on its own. You can however try to zip datadir (without wallet, logs and config files) and provide that to skip initial reindexing but I'm not 100% sure if that would actually work when you move it from one system to another.
The version I am using is the last one you worked on I believe, the one that was created around the time the blockchain got stuck.
Well, I can already hardly remember what it was and even when that happened
But I believe it was "2.1.2 critical bugfix". Check version number in Help -> Debug window, mine says v2.1.3.0
guess im a version behind, i have v2.1.2.0 lol my bad
switched to the latest version, now im stuck waiting to sync again, but its ok i guess, lol
Also updated the link on the Op to point directly at the releases page instead of a specific version.
Think I'm having an issue here and missing some coins, not sure if they just haven't caught up to the transaction of when i sent them to my wallet or what, their still showing on the blockchain but im gonna use the 2.1.2 wallet until your able to respond man.
