For an experiment, I'm running an IDE hdd setup with 2x 120GB IDE hdd's in JBOD. Funny, I got a block in 48 hours. lol

So I just mined a block and it showed in in the burst web interface (127.0.0.1:8125) and I just checked the web interface again about an hour or so later and the mined coins are gone? Under Blocks, in the web interface, it doesnt show up anymore either. What the hell?

the difficulty increases....... when a mining pool?
Trying to get one up today.

For the pool, will everyone have to generate different nonces for the same public address, or will every person get a unique address to generate plots for?
Unique address

Will the current miner be used or a new one specifically for pool mining? Is this a requirement to register for the pool?
A modified pocminer is needed. Current setup has you enter your payout address into a textbox, and submit, and it kicks out a generate address to use, and no other registration needed.

Oh ok. Is the pool going to be ready for today or is it still tentative?
I have a hopefully functional version done right now, that I'll be testing on a testnet with the difficulty floored in a few minutes to see if everything seems to work. Assuming that goes well, there're a few things I need to adjust, but it'll be up tonight.

I have a question, and forgive me if it was already answered somewhere in here as I just browsed through and could have missed it.

So what happens in the event of a hard drive upgrade, like for instance, if I have my 6 sata inputs on my board maxed (all used up) with 2TB drives, and I choose to upgrade them all to 4 or 6 TB drives. Is it possible to move the plots that were generated on the original drives to the new drives? Or do I get to rebuild all my plots?

Thanks in advance
You can move them just fine.

in generate, what more important? gpu threads or ram in xmx (i mean java -Xmx2000m)

with -Xmx2000m you just set the upper Limit. If you dont get any errors this limit is set high enough.

The more CPU threads you use the faster you can generate the plot files. But no matter how many threads you use - you end up with the same file.

Higher stagger sizes (=more memory usage) produce "better" plot files. They are faster to read, use less disk seeks.If you have the RAM, go for 8191.
What mean "If you have the RAM" ?
Yes, i have RAM ))) 8 Gb
If i try 8191 generate windows just blink (open-close immidiatly)

Put a "pause" statement in your batch file, so you can see any errors that pop up. Smiley
i try "pause", but run_generate start new window, but i try again

Dev, mind adding a link to the OP to my review of BURST? Maybe create a news section?   Smiley
