Testing Idena node: release candidate 0.30.1-rc0

[midenaio]

We invite you to test the release candidate version of the Idena node: 0.30.1-rc0
Please download the node manually if you want to join the testing.

Changes:

• IPFS version upgrade
• Truncating blockchain history (the last hard fork update genesis block is used for sync)
• Compacting blockchain data when the node is starting
• Bug fixes

We plan to release these changes soon unless negative feedback is received.

Ready to use the real version
I think it's a good time to truncate the Blockchain
Because it's about 1.7 gb now and costs alot of bandwidth as i hold the fast sync idenachain.db.zip

So far so good. After syncing, node settled at 360MB of ram.

Seems to be working fine.

Well, after released version and few days, node seems to take up much more ram memory.
3GB in my case.

Yes, there is an increase in memory use over time, like a memory leak. For test I run 3 instances in same vps, and the memory consumed by each can be different about 3x, running since same time and not stopping them.

Also seems that in multi node mode affect more than in single node.
