I am running geth with syncmode = full (because I need the full state tree of old blocks) and even though it was syncing over 200-300 blocks at a time a while ago, it is now only syncing a few blocks. Any idea why? thanks

    I believe you are experiencing the after-effects of the state-bloat attack: ethereum.stackexchange.com/questions/33502/…

  • I think the poking was still going on in January of 2017.
