Topic: [1500 TH] p2pool: Decentralized, DoS-resistant, Hop-Proof pool - page 281. (Read 2592023 times)

Is the p2pool share difficulty node specific, or it's whole p2pool blockchain specific?

I thought the peer's came in on port 9333 and the workers on 9332? Well both ports have been forwarded when I started months ago so this is a little perplexing. I just looked at the P2P node listing and it looks like I may not be alone so I guess I will let it ride for now. I know I could go add peers but as I am still getting shares so it is not broken. I contribute this to something strange. Guess it is time to use the search feature to see if this was addressed in the past.

EDIT: After further research I guess this is nothing to worry about. I find it strange how I lost all of them at the same time and did not find a smoking gun in the router logs such as a loss of service. Oh well back to the regularly scheduled program.

Nice work Windpath on the new site.

You in the public node mining, luck is very big, this is normal.

If the node pool stress 100TH/S,
Dynamic miners difficulty: 20000 - 30000.
The efficiency is very low.
If the node is the force 10TH/S,
Dynamic miners difficulty: 1000 - 3000.
Thank you for your blessing. I wish you good luck.

I don't think the 3 day thing is true anymore.  I've watched my 1 share roll off in 36 hours or less.

Also, at 920 GH/s, your variance is going to be bad.  Be patient, and expect lots of time without shares.

Because P2pool is PPLNS so it takes around 3 days to build up enough shares to start seeing payment. conversely when you stop mining you'll still receive payments for a few days. have a little patience, it'll come and when it does it'll be sweet. p2pool has been finding quite a few blocks lately.

That's what it looked like to me. P2pool is so awesome we orphan our own blocks and keep the one with higher transaction fees.

Lol, someone with a better understanding then I will have to figure this out, but both those blocks had the same height (321414) on the Bitcoin blockchain, but different hashes on the p2pool share chain.

It looks like we orphaned our own block???

From Coin Cadence's p2pool logs (the lower one was orphaned):


Note: Our stats will not be able to show the Orphan block for a while (because they were submitted at the same height), I'll be sure it is added soon...

    That's the way isn't it - like waiting for a bus, nothing for hours then they all come at once........

What the frack just happened with the blocks? 2 in a row and so fast?

I'm having some questions about P2Pool mining, I'm mining on http://elizium.name node with 2 Antminer S3+'s, at about 920GH/s.
But I've been mining for 12+ hours now, and I still have nothing. I added after my payout address "+518" but still nothing.
Is this normal or...?

Heh, unobtrusive is one thing, not being able to see it is another....

Ads can be annoying, but on the other hand, they serve a very useful purpose both for the advertiser and the receiver.  If I were "paying" for that spot, I'd certainly want to be able to have it seen easily.

No worries tho, there's probably enough time to play around with it and come to a good solution.

Thanks for all the feedback

I plan to make individual pages for the 4 parts of Learn and Participate section, the modals were an attempt to keep it all on 1 page for ease of maintenance, but I agree with you and think they need to be on individual pages...

I'll play around with the link coloring.

I tried (maybe to hard) to keep the ad unobtrusive, I'll revisit its location as the site grows...

Nice!

One comment tho - the yellow on white is a little hard to read, not exactly very easy on the eyes.  I'd either make the background a light grey or something to be able to better contrast the yellow, or change the yellow text to something with a little more contrast - dark grey, dark blue, etc.

Edit - OK, two comments...

The 3 areas you can go to from the main "learn and participate" page - when you follow the links, I don't think they're very intuitive on how to navigate.  The "X" at the top right doesn't really stand out as the way to get back to where you were.  If you don't see that (I didn't really notice it on my first try), and you hit back in your browser, it doesn't take you back to the main p2pool.org page, it goes to your last absolute browser page, which for me in chrome is my start page.

I would make a suggestion to either 1) carry the main p2ool page header onto those pages as well so you can easily go back to any of the others or 2) make the page a true "pop-out" or "floater" page where it is or looks like it's in its own box, with the "x" displayed in the top right corner of the box in a bubble (like you see on many other sites) so you can close out that page and return to the main page you were previously looking at.  Or, maybe to start you could move the yellow "nav button bar" from the bottom of the page, and put that in place of that large "X" in the top right.  At least people will see that immediately and then can clik on that, rather than have to scroll down to see it, it might not be normally displayed unless you're on an uber-large resolution setting.

Edit #2 - Ok, one more comment...

The main page, at the bottom, you have a spot for a sponsored advertisement.  Depending on the size of the browser window it gets cut off at the bottom and you can't see the whole area.  I'm at 1900x1200 and my browser window is usually somewhere around 1400x900 resolution size, so decently large, but not full screen.  You have to scroll down to see it all, so if you really want that space to be useful I think you're going to have to float it somewhere in the main image area, or maybe make it a top- or side-mounted ad space bar.

I think I'm done now... really... I hope....

Why need it?  There's no login functionaltiy, so no usernames or passwords to be transmitted in clear text, there's no purchasing or financial data, it's just an informational website.  No need to spend the several hundred bucks on an SSL certificate when you don't need to.

No restart, I did get one back then he dropped. I guess I need to check the router logs when I get home to see what other traffic maybe going on.

New P2Pool.org Launched.

The new information site p2pool.org is now live.

Please consider this a start, there is much more to come



The bulk of the content is in the "Learn & Participate" section.

I welcome any contributions, suggestions, feedback, found typos, etc...

Enjoy.

Did you restart p2pool? If so all your peers will reset.

If not then perhaps something (new) is blocking inbound traffic on port 9332?

Is there a reason why I would lose all of my incoming peers? I still have 6 going out, internet connectivity and was able to get another share after the peers were lost. I had 10 prior to this morning. I am running the current P2P version, 13.4-52-g8cffc88, and also running the C++ relay client (which should not have an effect but provided as FYI).

It is not, yet. We are working on a open source version that will be available in October.
