Re: linux-0.1.6-test7 (much faster download, one TryLock crash)

I started with a fresh data directory with test7. Blocks started to download much faster. It only took about 15 seconds where it took a few minutes previously with the Linux build. It crashed once while it was downloading blocks with the following message in the terminal.

../include/wx/thrimpl.cpp(50): assert “m_internal” failed in TryLock(): wxMutex::TryLock(): not initialized [in child thread] Trace/breakpoint trap

I’ve included my log file, but I forgot to back it up before restarting bitcoin, so I’m not sure at what point in the log file the crash occurred.

Fortunately I haven’t encountered the segmentation fault yet. The frequency of segmentation faults in the previous builds varied quite a bit, so I’ll keep running it and let you know if i run into any problems.
