Interesting.
Someone was talking about RPi tuning relating to the caches on the repo, but I can't for the life of me remember who it was. Also there is a ton of work sitting in master right now but from what I gathered by glancing it when they got merged, those would slow down IBD by ~5%.

Thanks for the insights. it's quite possible that there are some changes since 2022 that aren't well optimized for the Pi. Anyway, not much for me to do right now except wait. Good thing I don't really need the node for anything right now. But it is a bit concerning... I wonder how many people tried to run a node and gave up because of technical difficulties. Not a good sign for decentralization.
