Need a little help.

How do you show blocks found that is more than a day ago? I've been looking at the code but I can't seem to find it or rather, changes I make doesn't seem to make it happen. So, as you can tell, I'm not a programmer and am only good at changing letters here and there.

Reason being, it looks really really really bad when recent blocks is blank.......

Thanks much.

whooops . . . new does not mean good. oldie but goldie here running the .exe version

again the old saying goes : ain't broke, don't fix it

does anyone have any experience with the following scenario ?

does your qt or bticoind crashes when hashrate is over 550th/s ? mine did couple of times, if it's below 550ths it runs normal but once it passes the 500 + th/s mark, bitcoin qt crashes p2pool showing "lost contact with bitcoind/qt"

but when i checked (qt), it seems to be running but i just close and restart it then all goes back to normal. p2p was untouched.

p2pool  is single threaded.  My hunch is around 500 TH/s p2pool is taking so long to server your workers that by the time it gets back to checking bitcoind, it's been so long it thinks bitcoind is hung.

You might want to check out using ck's proxy to point to p2pool so your node only sees 1 worker.

I threw the last git I retrieved from p2pool on 12/15/2014 up on my url:  p2pool-master.zip.

Dynamic cycling addresses has been merged on Github!

https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/pull/230



Not working for me, can't connect to peers....... Tongue

According to the merge it: "Essentially this pulls new addresses from bitcoind, using the account 'p2pool' - which I didn't have, so I created a new account on bitcoind called p2pool & restarted p2pool - no difference.  It's screwed.

Is it possible to do a git clone of the previous version?

Looks like it pulls and rotates the default mining addresses from bitcoind.

I saw that too.  Why would you want that?

Anyone else try this?  I'm getting errors all over the place:

small review of existing pools

* hidden fee - transaction fees are not paid to miners

unfortunatelly the result is that average miner is greedy, unpatient, not very smart human being able to look ahead 5 minutes

Can someone clarify something for me?  How much bandwidth does running a node generally eat up per day?
The only thing that uses any bandwidth worth considering is the Bitcoin node. If a new node pulls the Blockchain down from your node thats 20gb (uploaded from you).
Other than that is kb/s for transaction traffic.

And your p2pool node pooling pulling down shares.

It may not seem like it is much ... but the other day I had to kill my local node because it was saturating my limited bandwidth (3mb/s down).  It wasn't bitcoin, it was p2pool.  And it was long after I'd downloaded the chain (I'd been running for days already).

Decentralize your hashing - p2pool - Norgz Pool

What new miners to P2Pool needs to learn is pay outs are based on A share in the chain and current work in the system,  No share no pay.  It can take time to get a share at first.  I have seen some people with a Th or less connect to my pool mine for a hour or 2 not get a share and then leave.  I truly think if we want to grow P2Pool we need to educate the new and small miners. and explain this can take time to get the first share.  And they can watch there stats to determine if they have found one. I still have old s1 that find shares consistently.

Agreed, when I took over p2pool.org my hope was to provide an educational resource for new miners.

I threw up the current site and copy with the intent of improving it over time, however other projects have come up and I have been to busy to mess with it.

If anyone would like to contribute (copy/design/whatever), your contributions would be welcome Smiley
