Some very important optimization changes have been made! It could reduce the block orphan rate from current 5%-15% to <1% (ideally).

https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/commits/master

Everyone, please go update NOW!

Devs, please force this upgrade by splitting the chain, people will not update voluntarily Sad

Not to be a dick and all.. But why is not forrestv announcing this? The (main? only?) developer, you know? I am somewhat careful with code from the Bitcoin universe, where wallets are involved and stuff. "Prattler" has a low postcount, shouts, makes large promises and makes it totally urgent with the possibility to lose (forked) Bitcoin if one is not to react immediately.

I am sure there is an easy explanation to this, but still my eyebrow stays raised until I hear more. Forrestv is logged in, too, actually.

Its committed into his repo so its safe

It's not like Prattler is providing his own download link.  He is linking to forrest's repo on github.  Only forrest can commit to that and so you have no need to be a dick Smiley

Also, please reply UNDER the quote. Not above it.  We all read top to bottom.

I really hate to say it, but I'm not going to give it much longer.

Last couple of days have been pretty good for p2pool I think.

Only been running the new build for 12 hours or so.

stale rate has jumped to 20%
efficiency has dropped to 86%
DOA % ~ 1-3% higher

maybe just some bad luck on my end or something.

Or p2pool showing better reporting of stats.
My local MH/s appears to be very precise now compared to jumping 100-300 MH/s .

my normal efficiency is around ~102-110.

It's not being rushed[..]

If this is not rushing, I don't know what is..


The last time a "forced change" and a fork happened, p2pool lost a third of it's hashes and they never returned. There's still 10% running the old version getting forked out there.

Worse when the force was implemented it kicked everyone out until a fixed version was updated and forced out again.

Forks are bad. Forced updates are bad. Rushing is very bad.

not as very often as last night, but reject level is too high

Did you upgrade to 0.6.2?  I've been getting TONS of these since I upgraded my p2pcoin nodes to 0.6.2.  I just posted in dev/tech about the CPU usage in that release.  Probably going to have to downgrade until it gets sorted out.
