Mythril builds its own contract database using RPC sync. Unfortunately, this process is slow - however, you don't need to sync the whole blockchain right away. If you abort the syncing process with `ctrl+c`, it will auto-resume the next time you run the `--init-db` command.
```bash
$ mythril --init-db
$ myth --init-db

## Issues
The RPC database sync is not a very good solution. I explored some other options, including:
The RPC database sync solution is not very efficient. I explored some other options, including:
- Using PyEthereum: I encountered issues syncing PyEthereum with Homestead. Also, PyEthApp only supports Python 2.7, which causes issues with other important packages.
- Accessing the Go-Ethereum LevelDB: This would be a great option. However, PyEthereum database code seems unable to deal with Go-Ethereum's LevelDB. It would take quite a bit of effort to figure this out.
