Introduce a New Witness @steem.racing
I am very glad to announce that the new witness @steem.racing has been launched smoothly joining the STEEM witness's family to support the fast-growing blockchain of STEEM and the community around it.
First, let me give a brief introduction of myself. My name is Anthony from the always sunny country ~ Malaysia. I am a software developer with a Computer Science degree from Ohio State University and over 10 years of software development and crypto technology's experiences.
@bitmalaysia on steemit.com
I am using @bitmalaysia on STEEM for almost 2 years and really a big fan of STEEM. All these time I always wondered and wanted to go further on STEEM and the blockcain. Eventually, I start the @steem.racing project which will not only help me to learn more STEEM and the blockchain, but also get involved more within the community.
Furthermore, @steem.racing witness node is just the beginning of the project. I will write them up more in up coming few days.
The @steem.racing Witness Server Specification
E3-1270v6 Processor
8 CPU @ 3.8Ghz
32 GB Memory
240GB x 2
5000GB Bandwidth
Thanks for the great resources from @deltik's post, I manage to run the witness node on 32GB bare metal server. Let's take a look the screen shot from the server. The RAM usage on the witness node is actually less than 15%.
Currently I am running the witness on Vultr's bare metal server using shared memory with zram. I am pretty sure that this specification will need to upgrade as the project grows and also avoid most of the missed blocks that happen on the blockchain. I am still doing the research on choosing the right hosting company on upcoming upgrade. Beside the popular Digital Ocean, I heard a lot of good reviews about @privex. If any of you have any recommendations or suggestions, please feel free to let me know.
The replay process is 100% completed and we are ready to go on producing STEEM blocks.
