Sync issue - slow, never completes

[leefarg]

I am currently using 1.1.3 and have been using it for over a week.
It had been working just fine after initial synchronization, and I have been creating plots.
A couple days ago, though, I lost sync. Plotting is still proceeding normally. I had an issue where I lost sync once before, but that was fixed by shutting down and force reloading.

I'm currently on 282066/282406. The sync moves along very slowly (it is not stuck) but never gets to full synchronization. I am connected to many peers. Plotting is still moving along as normal.

Absolutely nothing else has changed on my system since I started farming/plotting. I have tried shutting down the program, tried turning off my computer and restarting, and still get this same issue.

Any other suggestions? Thanks all for your help!

same here, ( and a lot of people with the same problem on other topics )can you please check if there is a Single process using 100% of a Single cpu core?

They are about the same Estimated network space and Peak Heigh.
This buggy cost money ...

I am plotting and average CPU is about 30-44% (which is a bit high for plotting for me). But none of the cores running at 100%.

I'm also having the issue whereby my node keep on dropping out of sync.

Here is the error.

I am having this same issue, ports are open and properly forwarded but syncing not keeping up

[statop]

Same, haven’t synced in days

[nothinglastsforever]

Delete your db folder in .chia\mainnet\ and re-sync. Nothing else will fix it. It should only take 24 hours to re-download as that's how long it took me.

Having the same issue, just tried this, and for the last 15 min "Blocks" is stuck on the loading animation and the status remains as "Not Synced".

Update:
Status has changed to "Syncing" and the "Blocks" section is now populating. Anyone in a similar position, give it 30-40 minutes.

Bad advice, I did that a few days ago and am stuck around 500 behind, seemingly forever.
