P2Pool release 9.1 tag: 9.1 hash: 9742ead60733e26f94ee10a16c43ee7cb403e88c

Windows binary: http://u.forre.st/u/fngdrqsq/p2pool_win32_9.1.zip
Source zipball: https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/zipball/9.1
Source tarball: https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/tarball/9.1

Changes:
* Don't connect to older nodes and ignore old shares

This release is a test to see whether it mitigates the high stale proportion the pool is seeing. Please use it and report if things improve for you!

Thanks!

Upgraded.  I'll post in the morning how things are going.

BTW, my earlier statement about unit value decreasing on p2pool, I forgot about the increased difficulty, the expected unit value is there.

Lucky you, since my reboot over 3 hours ago I've had 7 shares, 3 of which are orphaned........on a 2.3gig setup.......this is hurting.

EDIT: Make that 8 shares and 4 orphaned.......it's too much man.

That's not too much off.  You should get about 3 shares an hour.  The orphans suck though.

Watch out for the "Neg-Rep-Dogie-Police".....
No worky for me on win7 64. New git doesn't load the shares & cgminer don't connect.....
Works fine here, but I use Python, not the compiled version:
Code:
2012-11-27 22:39:37.696000  Pool: 352GH/s Stale rate: 27.3% Expected time to block: 11.7 hours
2012-11-27 22:39:38.764000 New work for worker! Difficulty: 0.999985 Share difficulty: 572.519064 Total block value: 50.916300 BTC including 306 transactions
2012-11-27 22:39:40.706000 P2Pool: 17419 shares in chain (9436 verified/17423 total) Peers: 7 (1 incoming)

Got it working after a reboot.

This stale rate is painful watching, how much longer do you think it will take to settle down again? 25-30% is a lot of wasted work.....

Despite the high stales, p2pool seems to be continuing to work as normal.  We got 2 blocks today already, which is above average.

This morning the stale rate was at 15%.  That and seeing that the old version shares will be gone from the chain convinced me to rejoin.  I'm running at 21% stale atm, which is a little below the pool.  I've been on for about 13.5 hours.  At 9.5 minutes a share, I should have about 86 shares.  I have 99, 15 of which are orphan, 6 are dead, which is pretty good considering I'm having ISP problems that causes me to lose packets every so often.

Now if we can get just that patch we were promised...

Yep, +600 MB of RAM (after 1hours of running, newest from git) usage make it absolutely unusable on my 1GB RAM machine.

There is pool software you could setup but theres no point and its very difficult. Its just like solo mining which you could do just with regular bitcoin client. Depending on how many singles you have, it could be a good choice. But until we get the new SC singles which should work with p2pool, just use a regular pool like slushs.

Things should get better tomorrow when the last of the old shares fall off the end of the sharechain and I make a new release that fixes several critical issues.

ok lets see Smiley
hope it will work better tomorrow.
if yes, I will set up a new pool for bitcoin-24.com

Hey,

I have now run p2pool + miner for about 10 minutes.
Are this stats normal?
I have a lot of rejected shares.
