blockchain is on disk (139GB) but not complete. Had an error. What is faster? Deleting the blockchain and start over with bitcoind -daemon or bitcoind -reindex. What will be faster to get it up and running?

2I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because it is not about programming. You should post things like this on https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/ – Vadim Kotov Dec 12 '17 at 09:33

In my experience, I calculated how long it would take to reindex and decided to delete and start again.
Watching the logs, you can see how long it takes to reindex each .dat file. It would depende on the speed of your machine and the speed of your connection.
