Ethereum Wallet - a question about the client, a bug or a feature?

Question

Cryptocurrency

Downloaded from office. Ethereum Wallet website. Launched, created an account, password, everything is as it should be. Every time you turn it on, the wallet tries to download blocks (more than 3 million). It loads several tens of thousands and stops responding or even crashes. I turn it off, turn it on again - it seems to start loading from the last stop, and thanks for that.
Tell me, please, is he going to load a teaspoon per hour with constant hang-ups, or is there something that can / needs to be done? The funny thing is that I replenished my account, but the client, apparently, until the entire database is loaded, my balance does not display, although I checked it through an online wallet - there are funds on it.
In general, what to do, how to continue to live? I know the option of using online wallets, but I would like to deal with the client. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

He asked, he answered.
In general, I set in the task scheduler every twenty minutes the launch of the Ethereum client, and every 20 minutes the launch of the batch file with its shutdown. Those. the wallet starts, pumps blocks, when it freezes (after about 15-20 minutes) it turns off and starts again. And so the whole day, while the computer is turned on. As a result, almost all 4 million blocks were downloaded in 4-5 days.
And then it turned out tortoise Zeno . It remains to download 100-50-20 blocks, but while they are downloading, the number of blocks increases, i.e. while it was downloaded, for example, block 3,999,997, which was the last one half an hour ago, there were already 4,000,020 of them. And so for several days in pursuit of a rainbow.
As a result, I did not understand how to use this shit, I delete it with curses and use online wallets.
