It does make sense to remove certain subaddresses from the hashtable when you know for sure that those subaddresses won't every be used anymore. In order to correctly recognize incoming funds while restoring the wallet from the seed, you need to have a separate record of which indices are in actual use. And yes, 1M subaddresses would be 40MB, which doesn't seem like a big deal for major online shops :) | |

Would it be possible to remove subaddresses from the cache after using it once or doesn't it make any sense? I mean, even a large online shop with millions of customers could create one for each customer, since 1M subaddresses would be 40MB? I think it's reasonable... | |
