The rc1 update runs smooth on two of the smallest (1CPU/2GB) hetzner vps. Thanks for your passion :-)
Is there any doc regarding the ipfs-folder / optimization? The directory size hits 16GB an me (and maybe many others) have to upgrade their vps or at least their hdds.

@Fragilant Thanks for your feedback

You can run Idena node with a config file (see example) specifying the share of blocks/flips stored in the local IPFS folder:
BlockPinThreshold: by default 30% of blocks are stored
FlipPinThreshold: by default 50% of new flips are stored

Thanks for your reply. I did not read the conf file closely enough :|
I resized the hdds - but next time i´ll try to set the tresholds lower. Anyway: ty :-)
