What height are we at? I don't have any confirms so want to be sure it is working right.

I am at height 645 with 110'000 unconfirmed.

Same here, 110'000 unconfirmed!

Mine is saying 651 height.

Found my First Block after 3h on my 30GB test plot. Smiley
Now I'm going to create more plots.

How long can i mine on one plot?

What size hdd did you do that on? What is your run generate bat command line conf?



My 36gb test plot its on my ssd with
-Xmx2000m 0 140625 1024 2
My next plot run on my HDD with 1TB free volume.
 -Xmx1500m  0 512000 1024 2

But i have no idea how long i can mine on the plots.

I have idea either how long you can mine on the plots or if they just get written over to mine again.

What's the -Xmx####m used for? What does a lower/higher value effect mining?

That sounds about right. I hear it takes forever to get them confirmed.
Mine get confirmed really quickly, and I only have 20,000?

Its kind of hard to show because I am running off of 4 different drives. Pretty sure its from the drive I started creating plots on last night. Its currnetly using ~110 GB of the 800GB I allocated for it.

Here is my run_generate.bat text:

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\java -Xmx1000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate  noaccount#foryou 0 3200000 1000 2

Also

I started mining with a different server and I installed the 64 bit version of java and it makes it so that you don't have to change the bat files from:

java -> C:\Windows\SysWOW64\java

Doing it this way allowed me to run the bat with a higher Xmx value:

java -Xmx3000m -cp pocminer.jar;lib/*;lib/akka/*;lib/jetty/* pocminer.POCMiner generate  noaccount#foryou 0 8000000 1000 2

this one is using 2tb per drive

Hope that helps. Takes forever to generate the plots so if your just starting please please please use a huge complex pass phrase.



After installing java 64 bit, did you have to do any changes, like adding path or something?
Or directly run the script with Xmx3000m after installation?

In the instructions in this thread he says change the "java" to "C:blah\blah\blah". If you install the 64 bit version instead of the 32 then you don't need to change that

Just leave it as java in all the bat files. So the answer is no. I didn't need to change paths

I also changed it recently to run with XMx4000 and 8191 instead of 1000 (should generate plots faster, but requires more ram/cpu)

What would be the command to use 7GB for example?
((7 * 1024MB) * 1024KB) /256KB  = 28672

run_generate.sh account# 0 28672 8191 2

Does this mean things are working?
New best: accountnumber:4767
New best: accountnumber:4317
New best: accountnumber:3304
New best: accountnumber:7963
New best: accountnumber:3066

Let;s hope this will be my 8th block:

{"result":"deadline: 1175"}
{"height":"606","generationSignature"

How you made this low deadline?Huh? I allways get more than 100k.

deadline is just like share diff on regular GPU mining, on GPU you are trying all possible nonce on hashing as fast as you can (that's why performance is measured in hash/sec), if by using a selected nonce your resulting hash is lower than pool diff threshold (or network diff on solo mining) then your nonce is can be used to announce a block.

on PoC mining, instead of trying all possible nonce as fast as you can, valid nonces are stored in plots file, so the bigger your plots, more nonce you can use, every nonce resulting in different hash, the resulting hash is then calculated by difficulty factor to produce deadline number, the deadline number showed on log is the best deadline number you can have limited by available nonce on your plots

Indefinitely. Think of your plot size as your hash rate. That's like saying how long can I hash at 2MHS?  Just keep hashing Wink.

2 days of mining with 180gb... still no block found...
frustrating.. but still thrillin..

will not give up !

48 hours ago it was easier from what I heard. I started 24 hours and didn't find a block yet.

Where is the latest source code available?
Didn't see a github yet.

It is included in the "src" folder.

FAQ #4
there are no github yet, all source codes are included in .zip file ( wallet and miner ) in src directory
