16:16:46 <selsta> if there is anything missing for v0.18.4.2 please add a comment https://github.com/monero-project/monero/issues/10049
16:17:25 <selsta> we can reduce the DNS checkpoint load frequency from 1h to like 5min, but i don't think there will be consensus for enabling DNS checkpoints by default, too risky
16:21:30 <m-relay> <o​frnxmr:monero.social> Yeah, we would "only" need to coordinate with miningpools to enable them (and to update to 18.4.2)
21:58:01 <DataHoarder> was the DNS delay resolved?
21:58:30 <DataHoarder> that makes it quite uncompetitive for mining pools (and p2pool) - as the delay can hit when receiving new data or broadcasting blocks
21:58:58 <DataHoarder> the call is blocking, which prevents other things from happening within monerod meanwhile, from what I understand
22:04:36 <sech1> I think I moved DNS requests to a separate thread pool in monerod, so they don't stall tx verification
22:04:47 <sech1> Long time ago
22:06:51 <DataHoarder> maybe the recommendation on https://github.com/SChernykh/p2pool/releases should be removed?
22:07:00 <DataHoarder> from cmdline and "--disable-dns-checkpoints is needed to avoid periodical lags when DNS is updated (it's not needed when mining)"
22:07:28 <DataHoarder> so at least by default users will be warned, it'd still be up to them to enforce (opt in) or not
