Guys, why "local dead on arrival" spikes so much ( 20% rate)?



I have a feeling that it has something to do with blocks being found.

After I restart p2pool everything goes back to normal 1-2% rate, sometimes even without restart

Anyone ever seen a payout from NMC merged mining?

NMC on p2pool is not pooled, so you are merge mining, but soloing too.

I did find one NMC block using p2pool, so it certainly works Smiley

Let it rain! Wink  2 blocks in one hour...

Guys, we need to work on the variance Smiley
There is nothing you can do about the variance.
It's random (well as random as sha256(sha256()) is)
Increasing the hash rate simply reduces what that variance represents in time since it is directly related to (well actually applied to) the expected block time.

I'm not going anywhere Grin

Do i need to update to the new version of P2pool: http://u.forre.st/u/bqdrizaq/p2pool_win32_5250df6.zip

Or does it not really matter for LTC?

Don't know if it matters to Litecoin but, I'm using the latest P2Pool version (5250df6 = 0.8.5).

Tomorrow I'll upgrade by Bitcoin connected to my P2Pool to the 0.6.0 rc1...

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

LOL they are finally adding it into the bitcoind code - I add my own slightly different version into every release - quite annoying actually Tongue
Hopefully they don't send out half processed scriptSigs like some silly person came up with the idea and everyone has used ever since.

Meanwhile ... my question 2 pages ago about bad addresses in the share-chain - can they get in there and make the blocks fail?
No - fine.
Yes - you need to fix it fast.

No. Blocks are only rejected if the scriptPubkeys have too many OP_CHECKSIGs, which P2Pool checks for.

Can I just do git pull and restart to update?

Yes, of course.
(Why does everybody keep asking that? Perhaps a new question for the FAQ?)
