We study the Glauber dynamics at zero temperature of spins placed on the vertices of an uncorrelated network with a power-law degreedistribution. Application of mean-field theory yields as main prediction that for symmetric disordered initial conditions the mean time to reach full order is finite or diverges as a logarithm of the system size N, depending on the exponent of the degree distribution. Extensive numerical simulations contradict these results and clearly show that the mean-field assumption is not appropriate to describe this problem.
