Watch out for the "Neg-Rep-Dogie-Police".....
Can someone explain to me why the jalapeño or ASIC in general wont work on p2pool.

If you scroll back through the thread you'll see that aseras also tried his avalon out to no avail, he describes the problems he had quite well....

It's a p2pool/stratum issue & needs to be addressed urgently......like, for the last 6 months or so....... Roll Eyes

What makes you think they won't?
At least Avalon as been reported to work with their latest firmware (I'm not sure about the efficiency or the exact configuration though).

Sorry, I've made several tests with an Avalon (latest firmware), it barely works for a few minutes, then either p2pool (latest git code) or the Avalon break.

I see a couple of users of p2pool with hash rates that appear to be an Avalon, but I don't know how they're able to make it work, if they're using an Avalon.

I'm in the dark too: there has been progress but no final report. Even if there isn't a 100% efficient configuration, I'd welcome reports on settings and codebases (cgminer and p2pool) used to reach a stable level whatever the efficiency (just for the sake of documenting it in my guide for an easy reference).

p2pool.info isn't measuring your hash rate, it is estimating it from a random process.  Variations in that process lead to variations in the estimated hashrate.  p2pool.info has to rely on actual shares, so the variance there will be much higher than your local estimates, which are estimated from pseudoshares.

Thank you.
Does it mean if the accept rate do not reduce, the profit will not be changed?

it means you either haven't mined for a whole day, you've been unlucky, your efficiency is low

or some combo of those three

I mining for 7*24. Everything is fine before 2 days. I don't know what causes the hash rate reduce, does anyone have the same experience?
Thank you.

Hi, all:
I'm using p2pool with cgminer. local hashrate is 1Gh/s show in p2pool windows, but p2pool.info only show 600Mh/s for my address!? Is this a network delay?
Thank you.

I was wondering if it is better to use multiple threads or one? Cgminer uses  two by default (at least for me).

Don`t panic! Organize!
and why are ip's like 54.250.3.112 and 24.214.18.71 having days off continuously requesting shares from my peer ? (u can guess where the latency goes , to the moon and back all day).
Just ban those IPs. Problem solved.

Can you guys explain (on Linux):
how to see what IPs are wasting most bandwidth and request shares where they shouldn't?
how to ban IP on linux temporarily /permanently from connecting to my node?

Thanks.
Find where you are sending shares:
grep Sending p2pool/data/XXXcoin/log

then use scrypt drop.sh:
sudo iptables -A INPUT -s $1 -j DROP

It will block ip till next reboot.

care to explain why skipping from block punishes anywhere from 1 to 20 times per skipped block ? wheres the logic in that.

It's not punishing you, it's punishing some other person who made a share when there was already a new Bitcoin block. The message being repeated doesn't really mean anything.

Do you like fire? I'm full of it.
This is not designed to get me the best results i can get.

This is designed so some other can get on top of things and profit the most.

I can run @ 130% efficiency continuous, but the program rather sets things so that i end up @ 90% efficiency.

in effect this program works against me, add in all the latencyfuckers and were done.

"Skipping from block"  , thats what i'm gonna do before i put in a ton that will never pay off itself even.



and asking 1.0% for the author ?


decent people wait for it , they dont take it.

Have you tried using 11.3 instead? When I used 11.4 I noticed my latency was going up after every few hours and staying there until I restarted everything. Several other people noticed this too. I switched back to 11.3 and latency was back to normal.

Maybe if you described the problem you have more accurately someone could help. At least I didn't even understand half of what you were referring to in your post.

I am new to bitcoins and even newer to p2p. I am gpu mining with cgminer and I noticed it is mining with two threads. Would it be better to mine with one thread? I am getting 200 MH/s with a 7770 I am told that is as good as gets. Also what does the below quote mean and should I be doing it to make sure I stay updated, and if so how?
EDIT I am using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (which is also very new to me)

"Run the latest code: you can run something like the bash script I run by cron everyday to restart p2pool after updating it when there's a new version available. You'll need to know how to install p2pool from git, create a "pool.sh" script to run your node"
