DrHaribo, any chance of adding current Mhps for each worker and a total on the bitminter account info page?
Yep, this and more is coming soon. It will feel less "blind" with some more stats.

Where my XFX reference is a ridiculous amount louder at even 45% fan vs the 100% fan, but at 50% fan it says at 82C. 100% fan keeps core temps at a chilly 62C... so.... ya....... Alot of OC ability there. I'll OC it up and see if it'll perform for me tonight.
Be careful, don't start a fire

idk I think I could top that =), my XFX Ref 5870 is pretty toasty with its OC ability.
Although newer GPU's have better heatsinks that are quieter and overall perform better, under mining conditions I have a 5870 CF, one Gigabyte OC'd edition with twin fan design, cools great sure, but at 100% fan mining still hits 86C, So overclocking isn't an option.

Just got the first stale since I reset it today... not bad considering that's over 1000 accepted.
Good, good. Looks like the bugfix got it back to normal.
im not so serious miner anyway 
its always nice to test new things 
All people are welcome its always nice to test new things Yep. We have CPU-miners and multi-GPU-miners. We have 24/7 miners, and miners who mine once a week. Just have fun and mine whichever way you want.
Website update: chat added. It's under community->chat in the menus.
It's also possible to connect to the chat with a regular IRC client, like mIRC (Windows) or irssi (Linux). Connect to irc.freenode.net and join #bitminter

checked my miners today now.. a few more stales and its still .3% but this is the best I have ever seen... could be my internet connection as its less than perfect.
I think 0.3% is too high. And I think maybe you got it because of the pool backend bug today that caused instability with long polling.
I hope your stales stay lower now that the bug is fixed.

whoops that should be .3%
Your hardware is stable and not overclocked?
Its all stock settings.

It's fantastic to see the pool owner here taking feedback. I just copied my real wallet address from another site and it worked for me, so there was something wrong with copying the address directly from the OSX Bitcoin app.
Nice - good you got it working
Server pool bug fixed and now running stable. Should be back to lower stales.

I will look into it, but the 34 character check really is just a check for 34 chars. There could of course be a bug there though.
You can call the validateaddress command to the bitcoind daemon for validate address.
Yeah, I noticed that after I wrote the code that simply checks the length. So it's on my TODO list - it's just a veeeery long list.

$addressValidation = $bitcoin->validateaddress('address');
if($addressValidation['isvalid'] == 1) {
echo 'Ok!';
}
if($addressValidation['isvalid'] == 1) {
echo 'Ok!';
}
No need to check the lenght and other stuff.

I have run into the hitch that I can't change my wallet address on the web page anymore. It gives me an error message that it must be 34 characters long. When I check it and double check it, it is 34 characters.
Hmm. Are you using the "copy to clipboard" button in the bitcoin program and pasting it in? If you are manually copying it, maybe you get some "invisible" characters in there.

Until you get the correct address in there, you can set the minimum payout threshold high if you want to make sure there are no payouts to the old address.
whoops that should be .3%
I think the highest stales I have seen in the pool so far is 0.05%. And the server load is still low, so it's not that.
But the pool backend is experiencing a software malfunction every 10-30 minutes, which is causing long polling connections to be reset. When your long poll is disconnected for a second it can cause a stale or two. I will work to fix this ASAP. At least the pool is still running, and it doesn't seem to be causing that many stales - it's still below most pools I think.

I get about 0.32% on another pool, would be lower if it wasn't for the stales I caused while playing around with settings in the beginning. On yet another pool, I regularly see about 1~2% stales but that might be because the card used for that is heavily overclocked.
So I think it might have to do with how overclocked is the card, how the pool is setup and maybe the capacity of the server to deal with increasing connections?

I have 3 miners on your pool, almost 1000 accepted for each with ZERO stales!!
Sweet!
Hope it hasn't gone up now. I am seeing intermittent error messages from the HTTP library that the pool backend uses. At the same time in the miner running on my computer I see the long polling connection was reset when this was happening. This could cause some stales. I've never seen this happen in the backend until today. I'm working on finding out what is causing this.
I picked up a few stales on each miner, but the worst one is only .003% so almost zero... never seen it that low on other pools.
