1) Slush.
Is it working? It should switch at 10%. There may be a bug...

Mine isn't switching at 10%, it switches around 38%.

And mine is paying out 2 things:

Jack

and

squat

I've disabled slush...

i use phoenix too with phatk kernel and had same issues until realized it was not the proxy but job pre-fetching
I'm using queue 2 (-q 2) not 5 (default), requests work lots faster and submits in time
switching cost you shares too so expect some eff. loss although LP is active

If I understand you correctly, I'd change the following flags:

-k phatk VECTORS BFI_INT FASTLOOP=false AGGRESSION=13

to look like this:

-k phatk VECTORS BFI_INT FASTLOOP=false AGGRESSION=13 -q 2

Is that correct?

I can remove that in 3 seconds if you want. JSONs aren't for human eyes anyways.

Probably best, it was a 3 second fix on my side too, but it won't work for everyone else.  Either way, it is a good idea to have it fixed in the software on our side as well, because a lot of operators aren't as open to making changes as you are

Do you have a json api url that would be easier on the servers? With maybe a faster refresh?

http://www.unitedminers.com/?action=api

If you need more info then provided let me know. I just added valid shares to that JSON by request and I can add more if need be.

c00w:
I modified the config to use his json api, but I found a small issue in your parsing code

        if server['api_method'] == 'json':
            info = json.loads(response)
            for value in server['api_key'].split(','):
                info = info[value]
            if 'api_strip' in server:
                strip_str = server['api_strip'][1:-1]
                info = info.replace(strip_str,'')
            round_shares = int(info)
            self.UpdateShares(args,round_shares)


I modified it to look for api_strip, and remove the offending character.  In this case, he has a ',' in the result.

Edit: nevermind, I added it as an issue on github

Not hopping away at 10%.  Are you sure its supposed to?  Wouldn't the reward be essentially nothing if we jump at 10%.  I have no clue, which is why I am asking.

Edit: At 35% now.

Edit2:  Jumped away around 40%.

Edit3:  And within 5 minutes my estimated reward drops from .015 to .003. . . Going ahead and disabling it before I go to bed because I can't work out in my head how its profitable when the instant you stop mining their your shares are apparently worthless.  Hope I am missing something.  Is the mine there for 10% thing just so that we can catch really lucky rounds?

Edit4:  Estimated reward down to .0014 2 minutes later. .0007 a couple minutes after that.  Eff slush.

Edit5:  LOFL, estimated reward at 0.00000609 BTC for 196 shares.  How the hell is this profitable?  Ars would have given me 0.0057957445 btc for the same shares.  Or are the short rounds just so insanely profitable that it negates getting paid essentially nothing for normal to hard rounds?

role:mine_slush means that meaning is up to 10% only. Right? This can be used for eclipsemc.

Its working, as I have an efficiency of 106% after a couple rounds, but if it was supposed to hop away at (difficulty*.1) shares, then it wasn't doing that.

c00w: you latest update == awesomeness.  I had just forked your code to add the ability to enable / disable (including the info option) from the web on the fly, and you implementation is far superior than what I was going to do.  You, sir, kick ass.  Sending a btc your way

The UnitedMiners stats page was heavily cached and not refreshed often enough for what you all are doing. I reduced the cache time.

I thought we were supposed to be jumping away from slush at 10% of difficulty?  Running latest and i stay with them until at least 40%.  Or are they used as a kind of backup pool.  They are performing better than Arsbitcoin would have.

What does api_disable mean? My unitedminers just switched to it under role and I'm not sure why =\

It means their api hasn't updated in the last half hour

Figured out why. Stats page was changed.

New api_key: align="right">Shares for current round:([,0-9]+)
