Erigon is an implementation of Ethereum (execution client), on the efficiency frontier, written in Go. For an Archive node of Ethereum Mainnet we recommend >=3TB storage space: 1.8TB state (as of March 2022), 200GB temp files (can symlink or mount folder <datadir>/etl-tmp to another disk). Ethereum Mainnet Full node ( see --prune* flags): 400Gb. Erigon by default is "all in one binary" solution, but it's possible start TxPool as separated processes. Same true about: JSON RPC layer (RPCDaemon), p2p layer (Sentry), history download layer (Downloader), consensus. Don't start services as separated processes unless you have clear reason for it: resource limiting, scale, replace by your own implementation, security. How to start Erigon's services as separated processes, see in docker-compose.yml.

Features

  • Support only remote-miners
  • Build executable binaries natively for Windows using provided wmake.ps1 PowerShell script
  • Git for Windows must be installed
  • Use TOML or YAML Config Files
  • More Efficient State Storage
