What is a bluebox timelord?

1. Setup a completely fresh Chia installation via git clone
2. Run sh install-timelord.sh in that installation
3. chia init (there's no need to generate any keys)
4. chia configure –set-log-level INFO
5. (optional) Bootstrap with a blockchain db from another full node. Otherwise, let it sync.
6. Edit config.yaml:
   1. Set timelord.sanitizer_mode to true
   2. Set timelord_launcher.process_count to half the number of threads you want to dedicate to the bluebox.
   3. Set full_node.send_uncompact_interval to 300
   4. Set full_node.target_uncompact_proofs to 100 (if not already)
7. chia start timelord. This should start daemon, timelord-launcher, timelord and node.

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.
