Now tell me how can I prevent monerod from hogging on my CPU. I’m on DragonFly BSD, cpulimit doesn’t works, also nice doesn’t. I believe this is an IRC question.
@prologic@twtxt.net It’s just for a wallet?
@prologic@twtxt.net Well, I’m using this https://www.getmonero.org/resources/user-guides/monero-wallet-cli.html, any other options?
@adi@twtxt.net Surely you can configure the wallet to use a remote node. I’ve heard good things about Feather Wallet if you want something friendlier. https://github.com/feather-wallet/feather
@mckinley@twtxt.net Any CLI one?
Oh, I just saw the other thread. Don’t put your wallet on the VPS unless you have a specific reason to do so. If you do, make sure your keys are stored on a local machine. It’s fine to run a node there, but run the wallet locally and configure it to use your node if you can.
@mckinley@twtxt.net Yes, I understand this!
I understand it’s not a good idea to keep your wallet on the VPS. It is preferred to run your own node?
Often people run a node somewhere, then connect to it with the remote node feature from other machines. Or use a light wallet.
Cpu use will go down when block chain is synced. Also just a tip - check the prune blockchain feature to save a lot of space.
