Best strategies to speed up syncin of the blockchain

Hi All,

I hope somebody can give me a hint...about speeding up the syncing of the blockchain with mining. It takes too long .... I have tried copying the object_database from another miner I got running, but when steemd starts running it wipes it out, andstarts all over to sync, and usually takes so long that it times out ...

Any ideas..??

Many thanks!!
