Snap sync is taking multiple days, seems slower than fast sync?
My geth node was offline for about 9 months and I decided to spin it up and re-sync this week. I updated geth and I had to switch to snap sync, since fast is no longer supported.
I remember it took me a few days to sync in fast mode from genesis until about last year. Supposedly I'm now just syncing the last 9 months, but it's been almost 3 days and I still at 4 months ago.
Is this normal? Am I doing something wrong? Is it better to clear the old DB and start over? I have a fairly powerful PC, with an nVME SSD and 32gb ram.
