This was supposedly fixed April 2013 - I'd check your setup:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1978587

it obviously got broken again or there is some requirement we are missing.

Yup, that fix didn't stay fixed. And it was only for windows. Mac nodes are still sans memory usage graph.

Not a huge deal for me either.... I've got 32GB on the box running my node. I just hate seeing a blank graph. Hence the "teensy tiny" request Wink

So now that there are more eyes looking at P2Pool's code... and talk of brainstorming the BIG fix items like variance for smaller miners...

I'd like to make a teensy tiny request... from forrestv, the Templar Crypto Research team, or anyone really...

Could someone fix the Memory Usage graph so that it can actually work on anything other than Linux?

This is what it looks like on a Mac and Windows (minus my big red arrow and commentary):

Haha I run windows servers and have the same issue. I'm also lucky enough to not really be resource restrained so not a huge issue for me. I agree it would be nice but you'd have to write WMI for windows and god knows what for mac. Essentially though mac is Linux, well close enough, so the task should be somewhat easier.

I was looking at some powershell stuff to feed into the p2pool front end to report on server stats but my coding knowledge just isn't that great.

"Just run one... there's no reason to run two instances of Bitcoin Core on same box."

Theres plenty of reasons, but it can be done with just one...

So... what are they? If it can be done with just one, then it really isn't a reason to run two or more.

yes of course, running a second is impossible

What about chrooted bitcoind? Put it in jail perhaps

Why would you want two separate bitcoind's on the same machine? What problem are you trying to solve?

You can run one instance for mining --without-wallet and other for coins maybe?

1. Why?
2. Port contention issues.
3. Space Issues (inefficient use of space to have two Blockchains stored and sharing a Blockchain between two daemons is not advisable)
3. Why again?

Just run one... there's no reason to run two instances of Bitcoin Core on same box.

Usual caveats apply regarding Merged Coins and co-existing *coind instances...blah blah..

Another thing I'd add to the list...

Fix being able to get lots of transactions without GetBlocktemplate Latency going through the roof. OR something that alleviates the problem. Long term p2pool isn't going to cut it if it can't get transactions.

Is that reliant on bitcoind only or also peers? I've been doing some tuning of bitcoind but struggle to keep it below 0.5 secs and not topping 1s.
Is that a bitcoind issue or a p2pool issue?

Its not p2pool issue, use ssd disk and should be able to put
blockprioritysize=0
#blockminsize=2000
blockmaxsize=1000000
mintxfee=0.00001
minrelaytxfee=0.00001

With just 0.2s, with merged mining namecoin, fusioncoin, ixcoin and devcoin

I don't have control over the disk being used, as I'm using a VPS. My maxconn is at 50, though, maybe that's my issue. I'll tweak it and see what happens.

Thanks!

So, I can use one bitcoind to both run as a full Bitcoin node, AND also run a p2pool node?

Yup

It's been a while since I played with p2pool.

Can I have a full bitcoin node running, and use that same bitcoind to run p2pool? I'm thinking not, due to the rpcpassword stuff, or is that separate?

This is getblocktemplate latency with 0.0001 fees...

.bitcoin .namecoin .devcoin .fusioncoin .ixcoin directorys are moved to a small 60gb ssd with nothing else there as mentioned earlier.

If blocks gets corrupted, its only umount /home/username/.coindir and restart client not the bootstrap project - if you have it there, then when its up to date shutdown client and cp -Rp /home/username/.coindir /mnt/.coindir remount it and restart client...

Can Coin Cadence P2P Bitcoin Mining Pool frontend be dowloaded , it doesnt look so "beta" to me, I think it looks great and want to try it because it has many things in one place...

blockprioritysize=0 prevents 0 fee transactions

On my node, I set that to 196kB out of 500kB.

The fees are mainly to prevent spam, and are mainly a bonus at this point.

Between 12% hardware error rate, 20% penalty for no long polling, and another 10% for slow CPU lag (probably 3 seconds), I am getting 43% local DOA though.

Hard numbers?
