- The wallet contains about 200 transactions.
- Comparing 1.3.9 vs 1.4.2 right now, they have not finished but I'm certain from watching the progress that it will be the same result as above with 1.3.7 vs 1.4.2.  (Already 1.3.9 is 2x the progress of 1.4.2 after 30 minutes).
- Yes, using all the defaults, out of the box fresh data directory installs of bisq.
- The problem is synchronizing the bitcoin blockchain.


Some observations from watching the logs side-by-side:

- 1.3.9 does its 3 allotment of stall disconnects in the first couple of minutes.
- 1.4.2 starts off fast but soon the number of blocks received per second drops to a crawl -- however it does not stall/disconnect quickly like 1.3.9 does.
- 1.3.9 seems to maintain a steady throughput of 20 blocks per sec quite consistently.
- 1.4.2 slows to a crawl reporting 0 blocks per sec consistently, occasionally 1 block per sec.
- 1.3.9 stall threshold = 1.56 KB/sec 
- 1.4.2 stall threshold = 0.78 KB/sec
- Not a memory or CPU issue, its something like a timing issue to do with the way the requests are being made seems to cause the bitcoin nodes to be non-cooperative.  That's my hunch.  Throttling as @cbeams mentions [here](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq/issues/4778).
