There is no reason to store thousands of orphan transactions;
normally an orphan's parents will either be broadcast or
mined reasonably quickly.
This pull drops the maximum number of orphans from 10,000 down
to 100, and adds a command-line option (-maxorphantx) that is
just like -maxorphanblocks to override the default.
Thanks to Pieter Wuille for most of the work on this commit.
I did not fixup the overhaul commit, because a rebase conflicted
with "remove fields of ser_streamplaceholder".
I prefer not to risk making a mistake while resolving it.
The implementation of each class' serialization/deserialization is no longer
passed within a macro. The implementation now lies within a template of form:
template <typename T, typename Stream, typename Operation>
inline static size_t SerializationOp(T thisPtr, Stream& s, Operation ser_action, int nType, int nVersion) {
size_t nSerSize = 0;
/* CODE */
return nSerSize;
}
In cases when codepath should depend on whether or not we are just deserializing
(old fGetSize, fWrite, fRead flags) an additional clause can be used:
bool fRead = boost::is_same<Operation, CSerActionUnserialize>();
The IMPLEMENT_SERIALIZE macro will now be a freestanding clause added within
class' body (similiar to Qt's Q_OBJECT) to implement GetSerializeSize,
Serialize and Unserialize. These are now wrappers around
the "SerializationOp" template.
- ensures a consistent usage in header files
- also add a blank line after the copyright header where missing
- also remove orphan new-lines at the end of some files
Bypassing the main coins cache allows more thorough checking with the same
memory budget.
This has no effect on performance because everything ends up in the child
cache created by VerifyDB itself.
It has bugged me ever since #4675, which effectively reduced the
number of checked blocks to reduce peak memory usage.
- Pass the coinsview to use as argument to VerifyDB
- This also avoids that the first `pcoinsTip->Flush()` after VerifyDB
writes a large slew of unchanged coin records back to the database.

Port over https://github.com/chronokings/huntercoin/pull/19 from
Huntercoin: This implements a new RPC command "getchaintips" that can be
used to find all currently active chain heads. This is similar to the
-printblocktree startup option, but it can be used without restarting
just via the RPC interface on a running daemon.
* Replace -benchmark (and the related fBenchmark) with a regular debug option, -debug=bench.
* Increase coverage and granularity of individual block processing steps.
* Add cummulative times.
First and foremost, this defaults to OFF.
This option lets a node consider such transactions non-standard,
meaning they will not be relayed or mined by default, but other miners
are free to mine these as usual.
The wallet now uses the mempool fee estimator with a new
command-line option: -txconfirmtarget (default: 1) instead
of using hard-coded fees or priorities.
A new bitcoind that hasn't seen enough transactions to estimate
will fall back to the old hard-coded minimum priority or
transaction fee.
-paytxfee option overrides -txconfirmtarget.
Relaying and mining code isn't changed.
For Qt, the coin control dialog now uses priority estimates to
label transaction priority (instead of hard-coded constants);
unspent outputs were consistently labeled with a much higher
priority than is justified by the free transactions actually
being accepted into blocks.
I did not implement any GUI for setting -txconfirmtarget; I would
suggest getting rid of the "Pay transaction fee" GUI and replace
it with either "target number of confirmations" or maybe
a "faster confirmation <--> lower fee" slider or select box.
