09:41 < adiabat_> kcalvinalvin: ok, ttldb will be gone very soon.  the flatterttl branch almost works.  Just some waitgroup stuff
09:41 < kcalvinalvin> is it fast

10:02 < UsmannK> noob question: I noticed the utreexo README says "To try utreexo you do not need to run a server as we have a server set up for testing purposes which the client connects to by default. If you want to run your own server you can, see instructions below."
10:03 < UsmannK> The client however connects to localhost by default
10:03 < UsmannK> I noticed a comment in config.go that mentions 35.188.186.244, is that the server mentioned?
10:04 < UsmannK> And if I'm to fix this, should I make a PR against the readme (remove that line) or config.go (change the default)?
10:04 < UsmannK> specifically csn/config.go, sorry

10:33 < usmannkhan> (opened a GH issue instead)
10:35 < ja> usmannkhan: the readme note is probably a relic from the 1.0 release
10:35 < ja> usmannkhan: maybe the 1.0 release will work with that server, i dunno which version it runs now
10:36 < ja> or whatever the demo release was called, maybe it wasn't 1.0
10:36 < usmannkhan> hm ok, so to get started should I run my own testnet server?

11:00 < adiabat_> usmannkhan: you can get the older release binary from github, which should still be able to connect to the server, or build your own data set
11:00 < adiabat_> you can use testnet or run a regtest bitcoin node and mine a few blocks with that
11:00 < adiabat_> (I mostly use regtest for coding / testing as its small/fast)
11:01 < adiabat_> for the large data sets and testing we do look at mainnet though, but that's 600+ GB
11:19 < usmannkhan> That makes sense, thanks! I want to try building from source so I'll give the testnet a shot
12:13 < adiabat_> usmannkhan: testnet should work OK; also if you don't want to sync up everything, you can quit out of bitcoind partway through IBD
12:13 < adiabat_> it *should* be able to deal with a partially filled in blocks folder OK
13:49 < usmannkhan> oh hm ok, is regtest better? I only thought I'd go with testnet because I am unfamiliar with regtest :)
14:11 < adiabat_> regtest is like a make-your-own-testnet
14:12 < adiabat_> there is no global regtest network, but if you say "regtest=1" in bitcoin.conf, you can mine lots of blocks yourself
14:12 < adiabat_> and make transactions yourself and it will build the data files that the utreexo software uses
15:14 < usmannkhan> Makes sense, will give it a shot
