Syncing on Windows takes about 6 Hours, on mac with the same internet connection… this sync takes about 30 min. When starting on windows you get the following output. Which may indicate that only a single thread is being used for the syncing of the node, causing it to take significantly longer than needed. Issue has also been reported by a user aswell.
