I'm syncing a node with prune enabled. Will it download the whole blockchain and then prune to my given settings after, or does it prune as it syncs?

  • I'm currently 34.85% synced
  • Blockchain directory is 1.3G
  • Prune depth is 500

It will prune as it synchronizes. Disk usage shouldn't ever reach more than a few GB plus what you configured the pruning limit to.
