Hi, I've a similar issue: Describe the issue When I opened the Bitcoin Core program, the GUI gets to "Done loading" and then hangs about 5 min. This was happening the last few days (v0.14.0). After continuing, it will start catching up/syncing (it is now 2 days behind). After a some time (I don't know exactly) the Bitcoin Core client freezes again, and it hangs indefenitly. Can you reliably reproduce the issue? Yes. At this moment, after killing the unresponsive Bitcoin Core, it now behaves the same every time: start, verifying blocks, at the moment I see "Done Loading" it hangs about 5 minutes, then continues, starts catching up, and freezes again after ? minutes. Restarted the PC a few times, restarted Bitcoin Core about 6 times already. If so, please list the steps to reproduce below: Expected behaviour The GUI should continue to be responsive. It should only say "Done loading" when its actually done loading (ie the main GUI should open immediately). Actual behaviour About 5 minutes after "Done loading" appears, the GUI locks up (Not responding listed in the task manager). The "Done loading" message remains there until the main GUI appears. What version of bitcoin-core are you using? Bitcoin Core version v0.14.2 (64-bit), official Machine specs: |
This seems a duplicate of #10005. |

Describe the issue
When I opened the Bitcoin Core program, the GUI gets to "Done loading" and then hangs for about 5 minutes.
Can you reliably reproduce the issue?
Yes. After getting through the non responsiveness and shutting down bitcoin core properly, and restarting, I get the same behavior (attempted repro twice so far).
If so, please list the steps to reproduce below:
Expected behaviour
The GUI should continue to be responsive. It should only say "Done loading" when its actually done loading (ie the main GUI should open immediately).
Actual behaviour
About 2 minutes 30 seconds after "Done loading" appears, the GUI locks up (Not responding listed in the task manager). The "Done loading" message remains there until the main GUI appears.
What version of bitcoin-core are you using?
Bitcoin Core version v0.14.2 (64-bit), official
Machine specs:
Any extra information that might be useful in the debugging process.
Here's my debug.log I grabbed while it's non responsive. Note that I did notice some logs were written while the GUI is unresponsive (note the weird empty space is exactly as it was in the log):
After the GUI became responsive again, I checked the logs again and found these additional ones:
