Well I'm mining again but that was a weird little 15 minute outage. Things seem to be normal now
December 10, 2013, 11:01:57 AM
Miners still connected here but website down.
Edit: and back up, but not showing worker speed.
Edit: and now showing speed normally... nothing to see here, move along.

Everything just went idle on me and I'm getting connection timed out and ran out of work errors. Website doesn't seem to be tracking any mining either.

Wonder if that was deliberate to try and affect the difficulty change.

Whaou, problem solved fast.
Thank's Dr.

Apologies for the short downtime. Had to ban a couple users who were hammering the server.
Mining is back to normal.
If you can't connect anymore, let me know and include your IP address.

I get this:

Appears something is amiss. All the miners I have are down, and if you look at the stats page, they're not mining anything anywhere.

Hey Doc, without going too many replies up... can you shed some light on this ?

Doc, have you made any progress on finding a solution to the excessive stale Namecoin blocks?
Namecoin has some nasty bugs and it may be a bumpy ride until they get fixed. I don't have time to work on namecoin. Bitminter is a lot of work by itself. But namecoin has some new developers now - hopefully they can fix it.

---Getting to long---
So if you have 4 machines running 100gh, then whether you're multiplying or dividing it's done per 100 / machine and not the combined total of 400 ?
If that's the case, then one would need a worker for each of the 4 machines.
Not completely certain about that one, maybe doc can elaborate on it. I will definitely ask the other guy about it. I have 4 v2 blades and it shows ~40-44 GH/s but I did a little experiment and set my minimum to 4 and checked the proxy about an hour later and it showed a diff of 32 so it was being adjusted automatically, only thing is when my wife started streaming Netflix on the tv and I started loading the network it dropped to 16. So if you want to keep it above a certain number set it to that.
I will say this, slush's proxy with the midstate compiled is faster than bfg miner in proxy mode. Slush's I average 41 GH/s, BFG Miner I averaged 35 GH/s, big difference in my opinion.

In case this got missed, just wana be sure I'm looking a this right even though I guess you'd have to be sort of dumb to not understand take x and divide by 1.4.
I've seen other sites say to take your hash and multiple by 1.4
Ex: 10 x 1.4 = 14
I believe with a difficulty of 14 and 10 GH/s, you'd be submitting roughly 12 shares per minute. Your stats would be a little bit more inaccurate on the website, but you would save a bit more bandwidth. I've seen other sites say to take your hash and multiple by 1.4

I was told this by another pool owner for stratum users. Especially ones who use stratum proxy

As for difficulty, it is increased by variable difficulty if your minimum difficulty is not high enough for the hash rate of your connection. When pointing multiple machines at one proxy, the total speed of all hardware pointed at the proxy is used for vardiff (since stratum defines difficulty per connection, not worker).
If fthat's the ase, then one would need a worker for each of the 4 machines.

So when you enter the difficulty, you are entering a minimum difficulty.

Hey Doc,
Where can I find a explanation on worker settings. I just turned on the notification if one of my workers goes below a certain threshold but I see other settings in there and don't really understand them.
Thanks,
Bill

General advice, set your minimum difficulty to your hashrate in GH/s divided by 1.4. Some info on difficulty and work submits per minute:

Anything else?

What aggravates me is when someone comes along and has this awesome idea and thinks it can be done with no problems.
When people feel that way about something, I invite and encourage them to do it themselves. Usually they will not try. If they do try, they will probably fail, but they will learn something. If they try and succeed, we all benefit.
If you are refering to me being aggravated about that, I am a system admin for microsoft, and linux servers so I get that type of "let's do this" a lot, usually from the ones who know nothing about how the system works.
I.T. - No one knows you exist until something breaks, even if it isn't your fault.

Litecoin... we'll see. This has suggested quite a few times before.
Let's keep the ads for other pools in other threads.

I by no way am getting anything for mentioning the other pool. Was just a suggestion for what they are asking for at the moment.
