I want to run Bitcoin core on a raspberry PI (arm32v7), but the initial sync takes way too long.

I am thinking importing the UTXO set from another of my node which run on x64.

Would it work? Is it safe to assume it will always work?

The database format is supposed to be compatible across architectures.
