What is a bluebox timelord?

1. setup a completely fresh chia installation from git clone
2. run install-timelord.sh in that installation
3. chia init
4. chia configure –set-log-level INFO
5. (optional) bootstrap with a blockchain db from another full node. Otherwise, let it sync
6. config.yaml: set timelord.sanitizer_mode to true
7. config.yaml: set timelord_launcher.process_count to num-threads / 2 (where num-threads is the number of threads I want to dedicate to the bluebox).
8. config.yaml: set full_node.send_uncompact_interval to 300
9. config.yaml: setfull_node.target_uncompact_proofs to 100
10. chia start node (should start daemon and node)
11. chia start timelord (should start timelord and timelord-launcher)

You can check if it is actually working by running the following code:

awk '/Replaced compact/ {split($1, ts, /:/); s[ts[1]]++} END {for (h in s) {print h, s[h]}}' ~/.chia/mainnet/log/debug.log | sort

This will output compacted blocks per hour.
