Once it gets past the "processing shares 1000...2000...3000..." and so on it's ready to mine.
I usually wait a little longer before mining but I don't think it matters.

It matters, sharechain need to be downloaded.
In fact, p2pool is throwing error if it is not ready to give work.

...I'm getting a lot of messages about being sent transactions which have already been received...

I get this all the time when I first start and it seems like normal operation.

Good to know. Is there anything that shows up that indicates it's ready to go? Right now, it still gives me the downloading shares message. I'm mining on another pool until its ready but I'm ready to jump as soon as it's available. Does 0 verified /128 total imply anything?

Maybe I should just try running it on Linux. Not sure if I have all the dependencies though...

been busy helping ckolivas tweak cgminer code and building usable firmware directions for avalon. ckolivas has greatly improved LP time on avalon ( supposedly ) he also made an avalon run at 1.3PH last night. :/

Anyways more work on p2pool soon.

So things are looking up. I ran wireshark and it looks like I was exchanging some data with at least one host. Then I had to quit the p2pool app and when I started it up just now, I'm getting a lot of messages about being sent transactions which have already been received. On the upside, I'm actually receiving something, I guess. On the downside, it seems that much effort is being duplicated. That may be unavoidable, I don't know.

Either way, looks like I should just leave it running for now.

Well, I appear to be connected to about 7 peers today but it's all time-outs and handshake time-outs. I guess I'll check to make sure my network is OK but I haven't had any issues with anything else. If nothing else, it's probably about time I installed wireshark anyway.

it was an oopsie coding Cheesy

there's a bug in cgminer-monitor that watches accepted shares and at high difficulty ( >10000 ) or solo bitcoind kills cgminer.

bug fixed but while testing and fixing api

Interesting p2pool tidbit:
of the past 297 blocks (all that I can find available on the front page of p2pool)
149 found a block slower than the theoretical median
148 found a block faster than the theoretical median

EDIT: just found a block (worst block in over 2 months), so make the tally 150:148::slow:fast
luck is 45/95/92% over 7/30/90 days...

Think I'm going to leave it for a while. It's bedtime anyway

P2Pool should establish outgoing connections right away and you should get incoming connections very slowly. If you don't get any stable established connections just after P2Pool is started, something (a firewall/router) is preventing them to be established.

Well, as the guy who administers the firewall, I don't think that's the case Cheesy

. My home network is pretty much straight-through outbound. It looks like some connections are being made but the handshake is failing. I'll take another look tonight.

Okay, maybe s1 will put in like 500GH and make few blocks? ;]

I fear that all the teraflops from the planet Avalon won't make any difference. Relying on something that not only is brand new with no track record, but also happens not to work with p2pool seems a tad risky to me. Pointing massive amounts of hashing power at a pool whose code is suspect and expecting problems to magically disappear is just daft.....but I'm just repeating myself again...... Tongue

In order to fix a problem you have to go to the root cause of it.

1.5s ...

Edit: remember - each chip in the Avalon is only ~280Mh/s = 15.33s per nonce range
The Avalon divides it up into 10 - so 1.5s per nonce range.

N.B. that 280Mh/s is of course slower per chip than the 2 chips in a BFL FPGA single ... and not all that much faster even than the 200MH/s chips in the ModMinerQuad FPGA (or the 190MH/s chips in the Icarus ...)
There's just lots more (80 per board) and each chip uses a lot less power than an FPGA chip (Avalon ~2.5W per chip, BFL FPGA ~40W per chip, Icarus ~10W per chip)

Afraid? They're shit scared of of it! Cheesy

Have a scroll back through the threads, you'll see why.

Right, 5 days of nothingness is enough for me - back to another pool to recoup my losses again...... Roll Eyes
