I have multiple miners mining at one p2pool server. Each miner has it's own bitcoin address.

How is the payout split to each bitcoin address?

Does each miner need to find blocks added to the share chain or is the payout split to the addresses based on work submitted to my p2pool server?

Thanks

Each miner has its own address? I thought addresses were at P2Pool level, not miner level, so all those miners will only contribute to the single P2Pool instance getting paid to its address?

You are only paid for shares submitted to the share chain (that are still valid when a block is found). Each address is paid seperately depending on how many "full difficulty" shares are in the chain at the time a block is found. You could simply use the same address for all miners.

The workers are paid for the work they do. Pretty simple.

Any particular reason you are mining to different addresses? I have 2 p2pool servers (one primary, one backup) and they both mine to the same address. My miners just have a descriptive username instead of a payment address.

Not sure if this has been covered but I have found that using cgminer the optimal settings (at least for 5970s) on p2pool differs from normal pools.

Regular Pool
queue: 2
threads per GPU: 2
intensity: 9

P2pool
queue: 1
threads per GPU: 1
intensity: 8

This seems to have cut my stales and orphans significantly. Anyone else experience the same?

I think cgminer using deep queue and multiple threads conflicts with the ultra short LP time used by p2pool.

Thoughts?

On my 5830, lowering my intensity from 9 to 8 alone dropped my rejects from 9% to 0 Tongue

See you may not be able to hop P2Pool, but you can get more than expected BTC by using cgminer and lowering your rejects below the 9% that everyone else gets.

Hmm time to add an anti-cgminer pool calculation coz they can get more than their fair share
[/sarcasm]

You see saying that 9% is OK is like telling someone it's OK to mine on a Prop pool ... now who was it who said 9% was OK?

The 2.0 version of my stats page is now live. Here are the changes:

It is now running on a healthy web server (btcstats.net was acting funny) and I gave it its own domain.
The backed is now based on bitcoind directly (with a patch to get full block details) instead of being dependent on blockchain.info and blockexplorer.com. Eventually, I will add those two back in as transparent fallback options, though.
The issue with active user count being too low is fixed. Active users now includes anyone who submitted a valid share in the past 24 hours instead of just in the past 2 hours.
It now display the current payouts. You can star your own address so that it is easier to find in the list.
It now display a list of the active users and their hashrates. Note, hashrates are very iffy as they are based on the shares each has found over the past 24 hours. The jury is still out on if these estimates are reasonably close to accurate. I spot checked a few and they seemed to be within 10%, though.
Orphaned blocks are now shown greyed out, if the site knows about them. Sometimes an orphaned share will never make it to my site, so they may not all show up. But if they do, they are now indicated as orphaned.
You can now disable the audio alert when a block is found (see Settings in the upper right). Note that this setting is per browser.

I just pushed the button to switch over to the new site and so I'm considering it beta for the next 24 hours. It has been working well for me, but I did rewrite a lot of it in the last couple days so I may have broken something that used to be working. Let me know if you see issues.

OK, if cgminer isn't getting work, you should do a debug run (enable the -T, -P, -D and --verbose parameters in addition to your normal parameters), let it run for a few minutes, pastebin the complete output and head over to the cgminer thread. Perhaps someone there will be able to tell what is going wrong.

What's a GPU?

Quote from: ancow on February 20, 2012, 07:15:51 PM

Depending on your hashrate either that you need to wait longer or that there is some problem with hashing stopping you from producing shares.

Are there any lines like the following in your p2pool output?

Code:

2012-02-21 01:14:13.976993 New work for worker! Difficulty: 0.999985 Share difficulty: 584.493139 Total block value: 50.045000 BTC including 104 transactions

If not then cgminer isn't requesting work from this p2pool instance.

Nope. I have about 700mh/s on this rig so if it was working it probably wouldn't take terribly long to submit a share. cgminer does notify me when a new block is being worked on, but that's all.

When I try to connect to bitcoind via http I get this: {"result":null,"error":{"code":-32700,"message":"Parse error"},"id":null}

Is cgminer reporting any submitted shares? I'd assume not, which would be why p2pool doesn't think you're mining...

No it isn't. What does this indicate?

This:

   "blocks" : 197724,
   "connections" : 8,

   "errors" : "See bitcoin.org/feb20 if you have trouble connecting after 20 February"
}

That is without p2pool and cgminer running.

Strange.. never seen that before. Check the date on your computer, maybe. If it's about a day behind, Bitcoin's Feb 20 protocol change could be causing this.
