Im guessing it will end up invalid.  Not sure why, but a lot of the blocks I've seen that short end up being marked invalid.

I'm here for a moment Smiley. No, this block is perfectly valid, you can click to blocknumber and see details on block explorer.

Enough with the added extras
more important
   how about processing payout since this all day outage

We've been WAITING on namecoin payout for 3 days

clicking on the block number isn't a recently added extra, it has been there for a long time.

1. Strange, re: waiting three days since I believe my last namecoin payout from Slush occurred two days ago.
2. The webpage says (although down at the moment) that payouts should be processed by Nov 3rd at 12:00 UTC

OK. Hope all can be sorted by tomorrow. Thank you for the effort you are putting.

All miners over Tor? Yes. See http://torstatus.blutmagie.de for Tor routers and their bandwith... Actually *internal* speed should be pretty good (capacity of exit nodes is different story).

Pool traffic is currently around 1MB/s and it's roughly 10% of Bitcoin hashrate. So all miners over Tor would take about 10MB/s, which is still pretty acceptable.

Edit: I'm sorry, but I cannot finish processing payments, have some important meeting now. But no coins are lost, I just need some time to recalculate crippled rounds from time out pool outages.

I'm also surprised by low latency on Tor network. I remember than few years ago it was nearly impossible to browse onion sites, but now it's pretty comfortable. Of course building circuit take some time, but then I'm usually having responses under one second, which is excellent.

New Tor address for pool is: poolziyzjb25aa4e.onion

That actually works? Impressive.

I might put a miner on it for a while just to see if TOR is up to low latency connections. I assumed it wasn't.


Hypothetically, say everyone would switch to Tor, would it still work on a large scale?

oh man and i always though the reason to use vmware is, that its working out of the box without problems ... now i'm glad i use kvm Smiley

I has been using Xen everytime for many years (on Linode as a customer, but also on my own boxes) and once it was running, I never had any issue with it. I'm also surprised that it don't work  out of the box.

OK, I misused recent pool instability to some software updates, so there were few more backend restarts not related to kernel issues. But now I'm leaving it 'as is' and will see if another kernel fixed the issue (it should, but I told it about that kernel options, too).

I don't know if other miners will work without any modifications, but poclbm have some problems with DNS resolving, so it don't work yet. But I'll try to fix it as soon as I find some time when pool will be stable enough :-)

Ok, now is on all backends kernel compiled directly for virtualization. Give it a try!

Hm, it looks like serious issue with linux kernel and vmware. Pool is down, I need to find a solution. I'll probably try older kernels, which are reported as working.

Pool down again, or is it another long-polling issue ?
