Other commenters in this thread are correct that upgrading users don’t need a block database… but something needs to be done to improve the initial block download experience for new users. Improve the database all you want.. you’ll still have peers giving you blocks slowly for any number of reasons.
something needs to be done, the block chain will be huge in the next year or so, correct?
