[ETH][ETC] Dag creation error - System.OutOfMemoryException: ethash_full_new IO or memory error #325
Description
Note
Since there is a closed issue and #186 , It could be better to have open a new one to review this problem.
Current dev and master branch code fails while ETH and ETC dag creation.
Attaching C++ native projects to the solution could help other developers( like me) to fix the issue. it's quite hard to debug with preloaded dlls.
Description
ETH and ETC dag creation stops the node with this error:
System.OutOfMemoryException: ethash_full_new IO or memory error
