Unacceptably slow bitcoin sync
The usual bottlenecks for syncing are in CPU speed, memory limitations, or disk IO limitations. There isn't really a "fix" short of getting better hardware. The software is already doing as much as it can to sync quickly.

The only available "fix" is to increase the dbcache. Doing so will mean that more RAM will be used. To increase the dbcache, add dbcache=&lt;n&gt; to your bitcoin.conf file where  is the amount of memory you want to dedicate to this cache (note that Bitcoin Core will use more memory than you specify as it does other things that need memory besides the dbcache), or add -dbcache=&lt;n&gt; to the startup command, or, if using the GUI, increase the dbcache in the settings.
