Something's up with deepbit ... getting 5-6% stale shares ...

If Tycho was going rogue anyway, all he'd have to do is DDOS Slush and maybe BTC Mine. Then a lot of those users would either be offline or even move to his pool (like last time), making his hashing power well above 50%. It's strange how bad you guys are at coming up disaster scenarios for bitcoins, considering how you excel at it for fiat currency.

you may close registrations but how can you stop the existing users from increasing their hashrate?  Tongue

We are past 2TH/s, while deepbit's hashrate is ~0.9TH/s, so he's still under 50% for now  Cool More like 45%... once we hit the 50% mark, THEN he can temporarily close registration until he is at 45% again or something.

Testing
I like this pool but I am leaving it due to the very real implications of a single entity holding the majority of the networks processing power

I would encourage Tycho to disable new registrations.  The whole point of bitcoin's p2p methodology is so that >50% of the network is NOT handled by a single entity!  For the sake of the currency that your business is modeled upon, you should stop new registrants.

I support your notion

But I am not leaving deepbit :p I hope others will grow to catch up. If need be, I will move my 3-4 Gh/s to another pool

We already have SSL cert and https is available.
All website users will be automatically switched to https protocol in about 20 minutes.

That is really cool. Thanks! Smiley

Awesome!  And for security sake, I changed my password while at it.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF! I just realized I was paying out to a different address o.O

Ahhh, nvm I see what I did now... lol, I put in the receiving address for a different pool, but never paid out to it before, so thats why it wasn't matching one in my payment history xD Though I did send some coins to a bitcoin wallet that no longer exists a few days ago  Angry

First, thanks for the pool - I tried others and they simply failed at different things. This one works like a charm.
One thing boggles my mind, I run at about 20Mhash/s and it seems quite slow compared to the whole pool. It seems that blocks are solved every now and then before I've even done one shares worth.
Im not too familiar with this stuff... so basically, while Im doing my slow work the fast ones at 200+Mh that catch the right block erase my workloads purpose?
No, there is no difference, you will still get your expected reward even if your shares are not in each of the blocks.

Thanks :)

Could this be eased by putting up two (or more) different groups; fast ones and slow ones... so both would be numbercrunching on about same total speed. Once fast ones find the block they get their contributed shares, and once slow one get their block they would share profit with the slow group.

This would make it more even, slow group members would have more time to submit their shares, so there would be less "slow ones doing overtime".

Then again, as I have no deeper view to this stuff it might be totally absurd suggestion....

One factor that complicates things for me is that I switched from Linux to Windows 7.  I was seeing > 1.0 Ghash/sec before the switch but after I am only seeing 700 Mhash/sec (although the instant hash rate indicator of poclbm displays the same rate for both).
1) Set your averaging window to 30 minutes
2) Reset your shares counter, launch your miner and check if the miner's shares counter matches with site's counter.

So, is there any explanation for the lower hash rate display on the site several users have been seeing lately?

So I've started doing bitcoin mining with my gaming PC when I'm not playing games. Using GPU mining with a 5770, I'm averaging 184.0 Mhashes/sec, and contributing 0.02% to the pool.

Is that good? What's the average percent contributed?

For that GPU, that's normal.

I'm getting a bit over 200 with a 6850. You could get closer to 300 with a 5850... (different architectures and lack of optimized code for all of them).
