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

The dev(s) are not rushing this change and I'm just urging them to be more aggressive about it

Because the change looks very useful.

My skeptizism boils down to: Who are you, in respect to p2pool? User, dev, guy who had forrestv on the phone an hour ago?

A user.

Thank you for your patience and explaining the situation! :-)

It's not being rushed[..]

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

Everyone, please go update NOW!

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

[..]we're losing money (>2%) NOW!

"Now"? If we are, we are since months now!

And yeah, it's all in the official p2pool git run by forrestv.

Not to be a dick and all.. But why is not forrestv announcing this?

It's not being rushed, because it needs more testing. So update and be that tester, because due to very high orphans we're losing money (>2%) NOW!

And yeah, it's all in the official p2pool git run by forrestv.

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.

Ente

Except it's forrestv's git ... so unless someone compromised it ...

Exactly. That's why I have a "raised eyebrow", and am not running around in circles, shouting and having foam on my mouth ;-)

But in this combination, I don't trust GIT (which I do not understand in every detail) enough without having more info.

There is one big change in block detection: new block is passed thru pool nodes quicker than trhu bitcoin network. This should make orphans much less likely to occur.
Time to update IMO
