I built some clustered storage in the lab yesterday evening around 8pm UK time. It estimated about ten hours to synchronise (lab = slow). I've just checked now and it's a) still synchronising and b) is fibbing about elapsed time - see sshot-9.png. Elapsed time is more like 15 hours so far.

Not worried about estimated time - I know they are taken with a pinch of salt.

Cheers, Rob.

It's estimation only. With a slow storage timing may "jump". Do you have any performance metrics for underlying storage to share?

Elapsed time is an estimate??? Are you sure you mean that Surely you know a) when the initial sync started and b) the current time...

Yes I accept that remaining time is an estimate but I wasn't talking about that figure. Details of my storage don't matter. I'm not saying there is a problem with the time taken to sync but simply the math on elapsed time. My lab storage is slow, slow, slow.

Cheers, Rob.

We'll re-check that. Thanks!

Do you have any update on this?

I just did a full synchronization in my lab using the latest beta build (20150216 dated); and the elapsed time seemed OK to me. Estimated even matched what I estimated after 2% and doing the math on current elapsed time.

Thanks for sharing that.

BTW, we should have the updated build tomorrow. Stay tuned
