So I see the variance is still pretty noticeable... Would anyone be willing to share rough weekly/monthly profits and their mhash which is pointed at p2pool? I'm one of those seeing is believing kinda guys. When I was just mining one gpu, I was getting about .03 more/day than I would have on PPS/Prop at a big pool with fees, so I was happy, but now that I'm on 4 gpu's and over 3x more mhash (1350 now), I'm just curious as to if I will still make my calculated (based off of BTC calculators and such) ~.9BTC per day?

Yep. Another one.

5 blocks in two weeks, I must be in lucky mode. 
My farm is 7.5GH/s and only part of it allocated to p2pool.

2. Also it is 0% fee?
Yes although you can turn on donation % for the developer (or manually donate).Actually, there's a 0.5% default donation. Anything else (no donation or more) needs to be specified.
I'm pretty sure the donation feature was removed a while ago.
Other than that it should be 50BTC divided proportionally, minus the small bonus for the person who found the block.
main.py
parser.add_argument('--give-author', metavar='DONATION_PERCENTAGE',
help='donate this percentage of work to author of p2pool (default: 0.5)',
type=float, action='store', default=0.5, dest='donation_percentage')
data.py
# 1 satoshi is always donated so that a list of p2pool generated blocks can be easily found by looking at the donation address
amounts = dict((script, (subsidy-1)*(199*weight)//(200*total_weight)) for (script, weight) in weights.iteritems())
amounts[new_script] = amounts.get(new_script, 0) + (subsidy-1)//200
amounts[DONATION_SCRIPT] = amounts.get(DONATION_SCRIPT, 0) + (subsidy-1)*(199*donation_weight)//(200*total_weight)
amounts[DONATION_SCRIPT] = amounts.get(DONATION_SCRIPT, 0) + subsidy - sum(amounts.itervalues()) # collect any extra satoshis
Looks like there is still a default to me. (From 1f87c32)
Plus looks like a really small amount is donated whether you turn it off or not so that a list of blocks can be maintained.

If that's the case, somebody forgot to tell run_p2pool.py - the usage output still mentions it. See kano's post for the exact wording.

Why do you need Python 2.7? I'm running p2pool on 2 debian systems with Python 2.6 just fine. Theres a couple depreciation warnings, but those don't hurt anything.
Uhm, good question..
I dont even remember why I thought I need 2.7 to begin with? I uninstall it now and see if bitcoind and p2pool etc still work..
Thanks for the hint, sometimes the easiest way is the, well, easiest? :-)

thank you I will consider it if the instructions are over my head for windows.
There is a precompiled binary version of p2pool it makes getting it up and running easy. If you have bitcoin wallet installed and working you simply need to
a) run bitcoind (found in bitcoin program folder)
b) run run_p2pool binary
c) point your miners to the machine running p2pool like you would any other pool.

1. I briefly went over the information, so basicaly this is a collection of everyone mhash into the pool and evenly distributed according my mhash mined relative to the pool and accuired bitcoins?
So this decreases the variance for me to solo mining to the variance of 270ghas/s?
Yes. It is the same as a "normal" 270 GH/s PPLNS pool.

That is one way to look at it.
March 02, 2012, 02:04:08 PM
I'm considering changing pools but I'm not wery computer savy person.
I use guiminer and deepbit because it was easy to setup for a windows user, is there any chance for me to use this pool or is it just over my head when it comes to setting up mining here?
It's pretty simple; just look at the guide in the third post in this topic for Windows.I use guiminer and deepbit because it was easy to setup for a windows user, is there any chance for me to use this pool or is it just over my head when it comes to setting up mining here?
Or if you want, you can mine on my P2Pool node: http://tjberens.ath.cx:9332 (just connect with your payout address as your username and any password (or use "graph" for your password if you wanna see yourself on my graphs)) I put a 0.5% fee on it.

After banging my head for hours, maybe some of you guys solved this already:
I am on Debian Squeeze, which comes with Python 2.6
I compiled and installed Python 2.7 (which went /usr/local/lib/python2.7)
Now when I install necessary packages via aptitude (like twisted, for example), it is installed for the 2.6 version.
Python --version says 2.7.2 though.
With twisted I got around this by "easy_install Twisted".
Now I still need python-rrdtool. Aptitude says its already there, for 2.6.
easy_install py_rrdtool gives errors. And I didnt find any packages which would compile by hand.
I would gladly kick python 2.6 off altogether. But am sure I will break about every part of that Debian installation with this..
Halp! I need to get the graphs running, before switching to this (lan-) central p2pool node..
tl;dr: Have Python 2.6 and 2.7 installed, cant get 2.7 modules installed.

+1.
I came back to P2pool last night (as I'm certain Deepbit was stealing my hashes. The is no way 1300mhash/sec makes you .66 BTC/day. >____> )
Anyway, added 1.3ghash/sec last night. I might say I very much like the "expected time until share" and "expected time until block." Very nice additions.

P2Pool is at 300Gh+ hashrate for a long time (320G now, actually) - maybe it is time to update the topic's name.
March 02, 2012, 05:32:57 AM
P2Pool release 0.9.2 - tag: 0.9.2 (signed with my #bitcoin-otc key, as usual)
UPGRADE TO >=0.9 REQUIRED before March 4th, upgrade to >=0.9.1 will make transition go more smoothly
Windows py2exe binary: http://u.forre.st/u/qgjloyiz/p2pool_win32_1f87c32.zip
Source tarball: https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/tarball/0.9.2
Source zip: https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/zipball/0.9.2
Changes:
* Fixed compatibility with Bitcoin 0.6.0 rc2 ("getblock" RPC API changed)
Persistent note: I would recommend switching to Bitcoin 0.6.0 RC 1, which includes the RPC getblock call. The getblock call lets P2Pool keep track of block heights more robustly, and so might protect you from sharechain forks. Download it from https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/version-06-release-candidate-1-63165
UPGRADE TO >=0.9 REQUIRED before March 4th, upgrade to >=0.9.1 will make transition go more smoothly
Windows py2exe binary: http://u.forre.st/u/qgjloyiz/p2pool_win32_1f87c32.zip
Source tarball: https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/tarball/0.9.2
Source zip: https://github.com/forrestv/p2pool/zipball/0.9.2
Changes:
* Fixed compatibility with Bitcoin 0.6.0 rc2 ("getblock" RPC API changed)
Persistent note: I would recommend switching to Bitcoin 0.6.0 RC 1, which includes the RPC getblock call. The getblock call lets P2Pool keep track of block heights more robustly, and so might protect you from sharechain forks.
