Hey Michael, good to hear from you here! I still have a Sia daemon running but it's not doing much. When the site still ran on Sia I had a lot of issues with the scalability of the Sia daemon. While it's still getting better, it's still not as scalable as I'd like. The team has shifted their focus to building a new decentralized internet and the original Sia software has not seen much development since. I might try their new Skynet daemon in the future to see if it scales any better. I am still upholding your tradition of benchmarking new Sia releases from time to time. If you're curious, here are the latest results: https://siastats.info/benchmarking https://siastats.info/benchmarking

Oh, interesting. I knew about Skynet, but I figured they'd still need to develop Sia. Looking at the repo now, I see what you mean. It looks like development on the repo stopped earlier this year.[0] I didn't realize the benchmarks were still going. That's cool! Thanks for carrying the torch. It's interesting to see how Sia's metrics have evolved over time. [0] https://gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia https://gitlab.com/NebulousLabs/Sia

  They moved repos again. The Sia daemon is now here: https://github.com/SiaFoundation/siad https://github.com/SiaFoundation/siad And Skynet was forked into a different repo: https://gitlab.com/SkynetLabs/skyd https://gitlab.com/SkynetLabs/skyd
