Hopefully this keeps up, 18 LPs(new blocks) 4400 accepted / 2 rejected. LP's also seem to push extremely fast now unlike before.

I restarted mine 5 hours ago, and have about 1.5% stales in the intervening time. Generally it's been pretty good, with a couple blocks that spewed dozens of rejects. All the machines are running 2.4.0/2.4.1, other than one that was running 2.3.2 to see if there's a difference in stales (there isn't).

Yep, sounds about right. There is still reject spewing, worlds apart from the rejects/instability we all saw just a week ago. Its definitely in a stable-usable form right now, I will have the last reject stuffups resolved so everyone can stay <1% rejects barring any local miner/connection issues of course Wink

I made a few changes to try lower the response for LP's, let me know if you notice any improvement over the next 20+ blocks.

Im well aware of the issue around LP, and that is indeed the only reason anyone is getting more than 0.1% rejects. Im still testing the new setup to replace the current LP system that is sporatic in its LP publishing, sometimes its on time and sometimes it takes a 30 seconds longer than it should.

Its still on track to get it going by Sunday.

That said, the reject spam you posted looks extremely bad, seems you are getting among the worst of it right now. Let me see if I can tweak the current system a bit still to try lower that solong.

Rejects around new blocks are the main reason why I'm getting around 3% rejects.

As you can see, ABC reported a new block a lot earlier than your pool. And it seems like the pool just rejects these shares after the new block is found but the LP doesn't notify me of the new block until much later. So my miners wastes a lot of time mining on an old block which gets rejected.

UPDATE:

Planning to roll-out the last reject related updates by sunday, just running some remaining test rights now. This should be the end of LP stuffups and the pool will behave properly

[2012-05-14 21:10:21] Long-polling activated for pool http://btcmine.com:8332 via http://pool.bonuspool.co.cc:80/LP

BUT, what that bold line means?!?! LP for pool btcmine activated via Bonus Pool?!?!

I am very curious about what that CGMiner output means...

I think this started with the new version that keeps an LP connection open for each pool. I didn't worry about it when I saw something similar for my fourth backup (solo mining) since I knew it didn't have its own LP. If BTCMine is supposed to have its own LP, then it might be worrying about, but if it isn't, then I am guessing it will do one of two things:
1) Since BTCMine is your last backup, that LP will fail before you switch to that backup, and you will mine without LP
2) If BTCMine isn't your last backup, then even if that LP fails before you switch to BTCMine, an LP on a further-back backup would be used to avoid stales on BTCMine.

This is just a guess, but I don't think it's cause for alarm either way. It may even be listed in the changelog, but I don't remember.

4- if EclipseMC is down, mine at BTCMine.

BUT, what that bold line means?!?! LP for pool btcmine activated via Bonus Pool?!?!

I am very curious about what that CGMiner output means...

I will send out the signups now, just take note that you could be getting 3-4% rejects right now until I get the network sorted hopefully within next few days(sunday if Im lucky). If thats the case, you should still gain 4-5% above 100% PPS even with that reject count.

Ive just made few more changes to see about the rejects, need to see what happens over next couple of LP's from here on.

EDIT: Will soon be running new network library, in the meantime I will probably just let it avg out on reject rate of 3-4% for most but the 108% will atleast show some decent extra gains. There is however alot of users still sitting 1-2% or less, rejects are only occuring at LP and without drastic network changes I cant fix that right now, so for now I will leave it running without all these resets but there will be the usually LP rejects from time to time.

It doesn't look like the reject issue was fixed. I'm getting about 100 rejects a hour right now. Which is a lot more then I normally get here.

Mmm that doesnt seem completely right, your at 2.3% and constantly dropping from the first days 6-7% due to all the issues on that day. Im sure there is still some reject spamming left at new LP but it used to happen at every single LP and I dont see that being the case anymore. Its not perfect yet but its alot better and at the PPS rate we pay there is real value to mine here now, it will improve more as soon as I can drop the rejects more but for now I need to get it to run stable 24/7.

UPDATE:

Datacentre reported they swapped out a bunch of core routers which were faulty, pool is behaving rather well right off the bat so I assume it was likely a huge part of the pool problems for weeks probably. I will let it run until tomorrow night and if all checks out then only will I send out the recent Signup requests.

Good larry-on-fire, when will the torture end.

So my datacentre acknowledged they have upstream peering link issues and working on resolution, they will update me in 30minutes or I will start loading my bazooka. Im so sorry you guys have to deal with this shit aswell, atleast the extra PPS would cover and some more but still its a terrible situation day-in and day-out and as soon as I resolve software-based issues a datacentre seem to explode.

I feel for you !!! Cheesy
